PREFACE.
The history of our Library from the foundation of the College has
been sketched in outline by Dr. J. K. Ingram, in his Address to the
Congress of Librarians, 1884, and by Dr. T. K. Abbott, in the
Book of Trinity College, and again in the preface to his General
Catalogue of our mss. Both have given some interesting parti-
culars as to the history of our collection of manuscripts, but we
have as yet no detailed study of its origin and growth. It may be
worth while to put together here in a few pages what can be learned
as to the provenance of our Irish MSS., with which alone this
volume is concerned. I shall confine myself to inquiring when
and how they came into our Library ; what is known as to the
earlier history of each manuscript will be found in the description
of each under its number, or in the literature there quoted. Until
quite recently no continuous official record was kept of acquisitions
by gift or purchase. We possess indeed several volumes of Library
Minutes, extending from 1786 onward, the earlier part of which,
down to 1821, we owe mainly to the eccentric but industrious
Dr. John Barrett, who was Librarian during most of that period.
I have searched these Minutes carefully and gleaned some stray
details, but they are mainly occupied with Library routine. Our
main source of information is the series of Catalogues of mss.
which are now to be described, supplemented by what we can
learn from the manuscripts themselves.
The Catalogues. — Those that concern us (setting aside some
which only deal with printed books) are : —
1. The earliest, classed D. 1. 7. It is undated, but is later than
the gift of Ussher's library in 1661. The arrangement is " local,"
by press, shelf, and number.
2. D. 1. 6, with its rough copy D. 1.8, both dated 1688. The
arrangement is alphabetical, with press-marks added, which differ

from those in no. i. Some entries in the rough copy are omitted
in the fair copy, no doubt by accident. The main entries in the latter
are printed in E. Bernard Catal. Lib. mss. Angliae et Hiberniae,
1697, vol. ii, pt. 2, p. 16. Prom this again Lhwyd abstracted his
list of Irish mss. in Trinity College, printed in Archaologia
Britannica, 435.
3. A catalogue compiled about 1743* by John Lyon, a Canon
of St. Patrick's, and a scholar of some note (see Dictionary of
National Biography). In this, and in the two following, a local
arrangement is followed, which is still preserved in the main for
presses A to G. An abstract of Lyon's description of presses A to
E, by Sir J. T. Gilbert, is printed in the fourth Report of the
Historical MSS. Commission (1873), pp. 588-598.
4. The Monck- Mason Catalogue, 5 vols. (L. 1. 14-18). In
July, 1812, H. J. Monck-Mason was appointed by the Irish
Commissioners of Public Records to compile a complete Cata-
logue of our mss. He was occupied with this for twelve years or
so, and prepared a draft for publication. The Commissioners
seem to have intended to print his work, but in the end this was
not done; and when the Commission was dissolved in 1830, the
draft was apparently left on Mason's hands. The Board of Trinity
proposed to publish it at the College's expense, but he seems to
have declined this offer, and he finally sold his work to the College
in 1837 f° r £ I2 °-\ Dr. Abbott's account of the circumstances in
the preface to his General Catalogue is based on the statement
prefixed to Mason's first volume, but Mason's complaints against
the Commissioners are not borne out by the documents in the
Public Record Office. The task of describing the Irish mss. in
Press H was entrusted by the editor to Edward O'Reilly, who
seems to have completed his part of the task in 1819 or soon after. J

5. From 1836 to 1840 John O'Donovan was employed in com-
piling; a much fuller and better account of Press H. It is un-
finished, breaking off at p. 48 of H. 3. 18 (no. 1337).
6. In the year 1900 Dr. Abbott published the first printed
Catalogue of our mss. that went beyond the limits of Bernard's,
already mentioned. He adopted the plan of giving each MS. a
single number.
The arrangement of the mss. on the shelves has been repeatedly
altered, as the collection grew and was shifted from one room
to another; hence arises a series of different shelf-marks, the older
ones being often lost and obliterated. This naturally causes much
difficulty in identifying the entries in the successive Catalogues,
since the earlier compilers did not see the necessity of keeping a
record of previous arrangements. In the case of Irish mss., the
difficulty is increased by the vagueness of the descriptions given.
Besides, the original volumes have in many cases been broken up
and the parts recombined, often in a quite arbitrary fashion. Our
present Librarian, Dr. J. G. Smyly, has made a careful study of the
press-marks, and has succeeded, at the cost of much trouble, in
identifying nearly all the mss. mentioned in the two earliest
Catalogues. His results are embodied in a finding index which
makes it possible to refer readily from these catalogues to Lyon's,
and vice versa. We shall now proceed to trace the successive
stages by which the collection grew to its present dimensions.
Carew, Ussher, Stearne. — The first Irish manuscripts to come
into our possession were five volumes, now nos- 1432 to 1436,
which were presented by Sir George Carew, President of Munster,
and author of Pacaia Hibernia. He died in 1629. These five are
entered in Catalogue 1*
In the year 1661, Ussher's library, which had been purchased
by Cromwell's Army in 1657, was given by the Irish House of
* Only 1432 and 1435 are there noted as " sometimes belonging to Sir George
Carew"; both of these, and also 1436, bear his signature on the first leaf.
Lyon puts down all five to him (or rather to his brother, Sir Peter ; but this
is an obvious error, as Sir Peter died before the College was founded). In
Catalogue I, no. 1433 is entered in a late hand, and both here and in Cata-
logue 2 only the third part of the volume {Leabhar Gdbh&la) is described.

Commons to Trinity College. The vicissitudes through which the
collection had passed are described by Dr. Abbott in his article in
the Book of Trinity College, p. 149. Another account of the
circumstances will be found in Urwick's Early History of Trinity
College, p. go.* Although the gift was made in 1661, the books
and mss. do not seem to have been housed in our Library until
1666. We have unfortunately no list of Ussher's Mss.,t though we
have more than one catalogue of his printed books. There is no
doubt that the principal contents of our Presses A to E come
from his library, but we cannot prove that any particular MS.
belonged to him, except by internal evidence. We have such
evidence for nos. 574, 580, 582, 591 ; these are miscellaneous
collections, of which only such parts as are in the Irish language
are described in the present volume ; some account of their other
contents will be found in Dr. Abbott's General Catalogue. As
to the Book of Kells (no. 58), there is no reason to question the
tradition which assigns it to Ussher. He certainly had it in his
hands when he was Bishop of Meath (Gilbert, National mss., p. 21),
and he made a collation of its text (Ussher's Works, ed. Elrington,
vi, 232). Our Book of Hymns (no. 1441) in all probability
belonged to him ; but the ' codex vetustissimus ' which he describes
(Works, vii, 300) is not ours, but the Franciscan copy.J From
this latter he had transcripts made, which are now in no. 591.
We may presume that he once owned the Book of Ballymote
and the Book of Lecan,§ which he used in preparing his
Antiquitates. They were for a short time in our Library : see
p. xvii, infra. If we add no. 77 and no. 1437, which may or may not
have come from Ussher, we shall have enumerated all the mss. from
Presses A to E which are included in this Catalogue. They may

of the Cromwellians rests on the unsupported assertion of Dr. Parr (Life of

In 1 741 John Stearne, Bishop of Clogher, presented to the
College a number of manuscripts, among them five wholly or
partly in the Irish language; these are nos. 804, 1438, 1439, 1440,
and 1699. Stearne's mss. are described by Lyon as "formerly
belonging to Dr. John Madden," but this is too loose a statement ;
at all events, the list of Madden's mss. printed in Bernard's Cata-
logi, vol. ii, pt. 2, p. 57, includes only one of these five, our
no. 804, which is Bernard's no. 1649. But all five must belong
to the Stearne bequest, as they are housed in Press F, which is

described in Lyon's Catalogue (about 1743) as containing
" Codices mss. ex dono Rev. adm. viri Johannis Stearne." The
only other Irish MS. added in Lyon's Catalogue is no. 143 1,
presented by William Barry, m.a.
Press H.—Kt the date of Lyon's catalogue the Library possessed
only eleven volumes wholly or mainly in the Irish language. The
bulk of our Irish collection, now kept in press H * was acquired
in the following fifty years. The earliest list of the contents of
this press is entered by Dr. John Barrett at p. 318 of Lyon's
Catalogue. The numbers in this list -run consecutively, without
division into shelves, from H 1 to H 87 (now no. 1370-t A short
description, often very vague, is given for each number. The
entry is undated, but as it includes a manuscript H 14, now
no. 1291, which the Library Minutes (March 28, 1810) mention
as purchased in 1807, the list cannot be earlier than the latter
date. Unfortunately it is certainly not exhaustive, for it omits
three of the Sebright volumes (nos. 1335, 1380, 1392), which, as
will presently be shown, came into the Library in 1786. Again,
although Barrett mentions most of the Sullivan mss., some are
wanting: yet in all probability they were acquired at the same
time as the rest. It is therefore not safe to infer that any
MS. omitted by Barrett was not in the Library when he made
out his list. In point of fact, I believe that the twenty-one MSS.
which O'Reilly's Catalogue adds to Barrett's list were all in the
Library before 1786. My reasons for thinking so are these. First,
if O'Reilly's work was finished in 1819 (see above, p. vi, foot-note),
the mss. enumerated therein were all in the Library in Barrett's
time. Secondly, if any of them had been acquired between
1786 and 1821, the fact would be noted in the Library Minutes,
which Barrett kept during those years with scrupulous care. As
we shall presently see, he registers duly the Sebright gift and the
* Before the shifting of the mss. in 1802, described in Book of T.C.D.,
p. 177, the Irish mss. seem to have been divided between Press H and Press I
(Lib. Min., Feb. 7, 1803). I find in the College Register, May 13, 1815, a
minute directing the Assistant Librarian to arrange the mss. in presses H, I, K, L,
putting the Irish mss. together. Barrett's list may have been made on this
occasion.

PREFACE.
purchase of Vallancey's mss., and he has similarly recorded the
acquisition of Icelandic and Oriental mss. during this period.
Thirdly, the added mss. are all earlier in date than 1786.
The question remains, why Barrett did not complete his list.
I can only suggest that he found it very difficult to describe these
mss., as he evidently knew no Irish, and that he left a number
which seemed to him more puzzling or less important until a
more convenient season, which never came.
O'Reilly carries on Barrett's numbering from H 88 to H 106,
and then adds " H. 4. 1 " and "H.4. 2," after which he writes
"End of H." In July, 1835, Dr. J. H. Todd, finding, as he says,
that the class H books had "become much deranged," decided to
renumber them according to shelves. Thus H. 21 became H. 2. 7,
and so on : the sequence of volumes was, however, preserved.
At the same time Todd made out a complete list of Press H, as
enumerated by O'Reilly, adding one item, H. 5. 21. This list
he wrote in at the beginning of O'Reilly's volume, giving the old
and the new classing. Somewhat later he added at the end of
O'Reilly's catalogue brief descriptions of H. 5. 21 to H. 5. 30;
later entries add further H. 5. 31 and 32, and all Irish mss. since
acquired are placed in the same press.
We have now to inquire to what sources the manuscripts in H
can be traced.
Sullivan MSS. — A large number were collected by Dr. Francis
Stoughton Sullivan, who was elected Fellow in 1738 and died in
1766. His zeal for Irish literature at a time when it was generally
neglected and despised deserves all praise ; but he was very un-
fortunate in his choice of Hugh O'Daly as scribe. He employed
this man between the years 1740 and 1760; during that period
O'Daly wrote nos. 1280, 1284, 1285, 1286, 1287, 1288, 1291, 1346,
1358, 1360, 1377, 1384, 1406, and part of 1391. Most of these are
stated to have been written for Dr. Sullivan. The rest were no
doubt written to his order, and nos. 1374 and 1390, which O'Daly
wrote at earlier dates, were probably purchased by his patron.
Dr. Sullivan possessed a few other Irish mss. No. 1279, an im-
perfect copy of the Four Masters, transcribed by O' Gorman from a
ms. belonging to the elder Charles O'Conor (now in the Royal Irish
Academy, Stowe c iii, 3), contains a fragmentary translation (vol. i.
PREFACE.
ff. 25-72) in Dr. Sullivan's hand, so that he was probably the owner.
No. 1378 certainly belonged to him, also, probably, no. 1381, and
it is likely that he owned no. 1383, which is written by a scribe of
the same family as the writers of 1378 and 1381, and has traces of
O'Daly's handiwork. In no. 1289 there are notes in Sullivan's hand
at pp. 5s, 125, 137, etc., but these scarcely amount to a proof of
ownership. Except for 1291, which was bought from a bookseller
in 1807, I have found no evidence as to when and how Sullivan's
mss. came into our possession.*
Fergus MSS. — A small but important group of manuscripts
comes to us from the collection of Dr. John Fergus, a Dublin
doctor, about whom Sir J. Gilbert has given some particulars in
his article on Dublin streets in the Irish Quarterly Review for
1853, p. 610, note: see also an account of the Liber Flavus
Fergusiorum in Trans. R.I.A. for March, 1906. His books were
sold after his death in 1766, and O'Curry states (MS. Mat. 98) that
the Library of Trinity College bought the volumes now known as
the Annals of Ulster (no. 1282), Annals of Loch C6 (no. 1293),
and Annals of the Four Masters (nos. 1300 and 1301). The
sale catalogue which O'Curry mentions as pasted in Vallancey's
Green Book (now R.I.A., 24 E 4) is no longer there; but the
Academy possesses a copy of this catalogue made by Hardiman
(23 D 20, p. 90). This, however, does not give the names of
purchasers. O'Curry's words seem to imply that Trinity College
bought only the three annalistic compilations ; but there is
evidence to show that a few other volumes were bought at the same
time. For Vallancey has noted in his Green Book (which is a
kind of finding index to mss. and other incunabula) the names of
those who purchased manuscripts from the Fergus collection, and
he sets down four volumes as acquired by Trinity College. These
he describes as " An Expositor in Irish," " History of Ireland,
by Keating," "Miscellanies in Irish," "Prosody in Irish." Of
these the first is our no. 1331, which is given the same odd title in
Barrett's list; the second must be our no. 1332, as all our other
copies of Keating are otherwise accounted for ; the third may by
a like process of exclusion be confide ntly identified with no. 1347
* Probably after his death in 1766 and before 1786, when Barrett's Minutes
begin.
PREFACE. xiii
(written by M. O'Gorman) ; the fourth is too vaguely described for
recognition. Strangely enough, neither the sale catalogue nor
Vallancey makes mention of the three more important purchases
made by Trinity College at the Fergus sale. Gilbert, in the article
already referred to, asserts that the whole collection, with the
exception of the Liber Flavus Fergusiorum, was acquired by Trinity
College, but this is certainly a mistake ; Vallancey notes a number
of volumes as purchased by Lord Drogheda and other collectors or
dealers.
There is, however, reason to believe that besides the purchases
attested by O' Curry and Vallancey, one at least of our medical
Mss. was formerly the property of Dr. Fergus. The proof of this
depends on the identification of his handwriting. In no. 1301,
which, as we have seen, certainly belonged to him, there are bound
into the ms. seven pages of notes in English written in a bad hand of
the eighteenth century, and as these notes are immediately followed
by a curious letter from Myles Higgins, of Castlebar, to " Dr. Fargus,
Jarvis Street, Dublin," the presumption arises that they were written
by Dr. Fergus. This presumption becomes a certainty when we find
in his copy of the Annals of Ulster (no. 1282) a page of English
notes in the same bad hand, again followed by a letter addressed
by a patient, Geo. Macnemara, to " My dear D r ," and dated 1752.
Now, in no. 1333, the hand which we have thus learned to recognize
as that of Dr. Fergus has inserted references to the original text
of the Hippocratic aphorisms; there is also a scrap of paper, now
pasted to the cover of the volume, containing some lines of Greek
transliterated into English characters, in the same handwriting.
We may conclude that this manuscript belonged to Dr. Fergus.
It is to be noted that No. 1333 follows on the shelf two manuscripts,
1331 and 1332, which we have already traced to the same source.
We cannot identify it with an entry in the sale catalogue,
" Hypocratis Aphorisms written on vellum, very ancient," for
Vallancey puts down this volume to Lord Drogheda.* We may,

the library, and Dr. Douglas Hyde tells me that lie saw it there some years ago.

however, recognize it in another of Fergus' mss. which is de-
scribed in the sale catalogue as "A medical piece, a very
ancient MS."
Sebright Gift.— The importance of our Irish collection depends
above all on the manuscripts presented to the Library by Sir John
Sebright. Most of them were originally gathered by Edward Lhwyd
during a tour which he made in Ireland in the year 1700. His note-
books (see nos. 1368 1369, 1380, 1392) give some hints as to the
places he visited and as to some persons from whom he hoped to make
purchases. After his death, in 1709, this part of his collection was
bought by Sir Thomas Sebright, from whom it passed to Sir John,
the sixth baronet. Edmund Burke persuaded this gentleman to
send his mss. over to Dublin for examination in 1782 or earlier * and
he was prevailed on to present them to Trinity College in 1786.+
We possess a " Catalogue of Sir John Sebright's collection of Irish
mss. Presented to the College of Dublin," which was apparently
drawn up at the time of the gift. It consists of forty-three items,
numbered 1 to 47, the numbers 23, 27, 31, and 46 being omitted.
It is, however, a very unsatisfactory list ; the descriptions of the
nineteen vellum mss. are sometimes too vague for identification,
and most of the twenty-four paper mss. are merely referred to by
number. A fuller enumeration is found in Barrett's table of
Press H, already mentioned. In this the Sebright mss. are carefully
marked to the number of forty-one ; yet this also is an incomplete
account, threenumbers (1335, 1380, 1392), which certainly belonged
to Lhwyd, being omitted. When Todd drew up his fuller table of
Press H, he also marked the Sebright mss., making forty-six items.
But he errs on the other side. He puts down to Sebright
nos. 1321, 1322, 1391, 1392, 1393, not so counted by Barrett. He
is right as to 1392, but 1391 belongs to the Sullivan mss. ; as to
the other three, there is no internal evidence to decide between
Barrett and Todd, and it is safer to trust Barrett, who was Assistant

Librarian at the date of the gift. Neither of these authorities
attributes to Sebright three mss. which can be shown by internal
evidence to come from his collection: these are 1328, 1335,
and 1380. Including these, we may set down fifty-three 'numbers as
coming from this source: — 1298, 1302 to 1320 inclusive, 1328,
I33S. 1336, i337> '339 to 1344, 1349 to 1356, 1362 to 1371,
1380, 1392, 1401, 1442, 1443.*
It must be observed that not all of the Sebright MSS.f can
have been collected by Lhwyd ; the following are dated later than
1709, the year of his death:— 1342, 1344, 1353, 1354, 1356, 1364,
1365, 1371. Also no. 1343 was in the hands of Sean O Caisin,
Kilkenny, in 171 1 (p. 3). Most of the rest bear Lhwyd's name or
seal or other internal proof of ownership ; there remain five
which were probably his, but may have reached Sebright from
some other quarter ; these are 1 3 1 5, 1340, 1341, 1350, 1352.
Vallancey. — A memorandum in the Library minutes for 28th May,
1792, and a further entry at June 8th, 1792, both in the hand of
Dr. Barrett, record that Nos. 1324 to 1329I were bought at a sale
of Vallancey's books. One of them, no. 1328, has already been
noted as belonging to the Sebright collection. By what chance it
passed through Vallancey's hands I cannot say. Probably he
borrowed it when the collection was first sent over to Dublin, and
failed to return it when the mss. were given to Trinity College.
Anyhow, there is on the flyleaf the note " From Sir John Seabright's
Collection," and below, in another hand, "Purchased at Col.
Vallancey's sale, June, 1792." No. 1402 was presented by Vallancey
in 1802 ; he may also have owned no. 1292, in which there is a
note in Irishon the flyleaf by Charles O'Conor the elder, saying

PREFACE.
wsa originally part of no. 13 16, and no. 1402, presented by Vallancey
in 1802, but ignored by O'Reilly. These later acquisitions we owe
no doubt mainly to Dr. J. H. Todd, who was elected Fellow in
1831, and became Assistant Librarian in 1834. Always zealous in
the cause of Irish scholarship, he induced the Board of Trinity to
employ O'Curry and Hennessy in making transcripts from impor-
tant codices, and to retain the services of John O'Donovan for five
years on his Catalogue. From O'Donovan we received nos. 1398,
1399, 1400, 1420, 1701. We also acquired three of O'Reilly's mss.
{1419, 1421, 1422); the bulk of his great collection went, however,
to the Royal Irish Academy. O'Donovan (preface to Four Masters,
xxxiii) mentions no. 1 397 as bought by Dr. Todd in London a few
years previously. No. 1403 was bought at the sale of Archbishop
Tenison's library in 1861.* A number ot transcripts and miscel-
laneous papers belonging to Bishop Reeves were bought after his
•death in i8g2.f
It remains to mention three important Latin-Irish codices,
which contain Irish notes or glosses. The Book of Moling
(no. 60) was deposited in the Library towards the end of the
eighteenth century % by Mr. Kavanagh, of Borris Idrone, to whose
family it had belonged for centuries. The intention of Mr.
Kavanagh to present it to the College was at one time in debate,
but our right of ownership was finally recognized in 1895. The
Book of Dimma (no. 59) was bought from Sir W. Betham in 1836. §
In 1853, the Book of Armagh being for sale, Reeves, then a country
rector and a poor man, paid ^300 to save this treasure for Ireland.
Primate John George Beresford thereupon reimbursed the sum to
Reeves, and presented the Book to Trinity College.

longer possesses, the Great Book of Lecan and the Book of
Ballymote. Ussher quotes them frequently in his Antiquitates as
Liber Sliguntinus and Liber Balimotensis, and they probably came
to us with the rest of his books. At all events, they are mentioned
in the two earliest Catalogues. According to Bishop Nicolson,
" Irish Historical Library," p. 39, the Book of Lecan was carried
to Paris during the troubles of James IPs reign. It is noted on
the flyleaf of Catal. 2 as " missing in 1702." It was never recovered
by the College, but was restored to Ireland in 1787, and is now
housed in the Royal Irish Academy. The circumstances under
which we lost the Book of Ballymote are obscure. It seems
to have been lent to Dr. Anthony Raymond about 1720, and
to have remained for some time in his keeping. We have in one of
our manuscripts, no. 1361, a list of the contents of the Book of
Ballymote, made by Tadhg O'Neachtain, and dated 1726.
Another volume written by the same scribe, no. 1289, contains
long extracts, apparently copied direct from the Book of Ballymote ;
these, however, cannot be accurately dated, as O'Neachtain
worked at this volume for at least sixteen years (1729-1745),
probably more. No. 1295, which is a copy of the greater part
of Ballymote, by Tipper, bears date 1728. It is possible that
while Tipper and O'Neachtain were at work the Book was still in
Raymond's hands. Vallancey says that it was stolen by Raymond's
servant. However this may be, the Book appears in a list of
"manuscripts wanting in 1742," which is written, on a flyleaf of
Catal. 2. What is known of its later fortunes will be found in
O'Curry's unpublished Academy Catalogue, or, more briefly, in
Atkinson's introduction to the facsimile.
Another volume which cannot now be traced is thus described
in the Catalogue of 1688 (under : ' Nomina " = Bernard, no. 601) :
" Nomina Regum quorundam Conatiae. Opus quoddam de jure.
Opera Galeni et Hippocratis de Chirurgia. Hibernice, fol. membr."
The earliest Catalogue has the same entry, except that it omits
the clause " Opus quoddam de jure." This description, as it
stands, does not correspond to any ms. described by Lyon, nor to
any that is now in the Library. Either the volume has been lost,
or it has been broken up, and its parts may still exist among those
PREFACE.
vellums whose provenance is uncertain. It is possible, for example,
that the treatise on law which it contained may be identical with
the first and second parts of no. 1433 : for it is only the last part
of that ms. (copy of Leabhar Gdbhdla ) that can be recognized with
certainty in the two earliest Catalogues.
Those Catalogues also mention a copy of Keating's History,
which seems to have disappeared (see table on p. ix). It is entered
on the flyleaf of the 1688 Catalogue, among a list of mss. that
were missing in 1702. The same Catalogue has a series of entries
in a late hand, among which is " B. 64, a Book in Irish, which
seems to be antiquities." This may, perhaps, be the missing
Keating : and it is further possible that both these entries are to
be identified with no. 1439, which appears in Lyon's Catalogue as
F. 3. 21. This is, however, not likely, as all the contents of Press F
are assumed to have come from Bishop Stearne in 1741.
There remains a case which is perhaps one of confusion, not
of loss. Our no. 1335, one of the Sebright mss., is by O'Reilly
classed H 52, and his description leaves no doubt of its identity.
But in Barrett's list H. 52 is thus described: " A Miscellany of
Poems and extracts from the Book of Ballymote, 4 ," and it is not
marked as a Sebright MS. Clearly this is not our 1335, nor can
that Ms. be elsewhere recognized among Barrett's descriptions.
Further, in the flyleaves of Lyon's Catalogue there is a list of mss.
lent to various persons, and here occurs this entry: "Reed, this
20 Feb., 1808, an Irish ms., no. 3, marked H. 37, a miscellany
containing some Irish poems and some abstracts from the Book of
Ballymote, for which I promise to be accountable. M. K. Leyden."
To this is appended: " Oct. 19, 1812. Found this MS. J. Barrett."
This is evidently the same volume as H. 52 of Barrett's list. But
H. 37 in Barrett's own list, and in O'Reilly, is Plunkett's
Dictionary. Where, then, is the manuscript which Barrett at
one time calls H. 37 and at another H. 52? I have not found
a solution of this question.
Dr. Abbott's general Catalogue of MSS. in Trinity College was
published in 1900. In compiling this he relied, where the Irish
manuscripts were concerned, principally on O'Donovan's Catalogue,
PREFACE. xix
so far as it went; unfortunately it breaks off abruptly near the
beginning of H. 3.18, and for the rest of the collection he had no
better assistance than is afforded by O'Reilly's descriptions, which
are usually superficial and frequently incorrect. Besides, the scale
on which the whole volume was planned made it impossible to give
as full an account of the Irish mss. as Dr. Abbott felt to be
desirable. Accordingly he determined to attempt a fresh Catalogue
specially devoted to these manuscripts, and this undertaking
occupied the last years of his long life. He died in December, 1913,
at the age of eighty-four, leaving his task half finished. When I was
asked in 191 5 to complete the work, I found that the first 176 pages
had been printed off and the type broken up : this section of the
volume is therefore published as Dr. Abbott left it. The rest of his
work was in various stages of preparation : some sheets were pretty
far advanced, others were merely reprints of the 1900 volume. I
have done my best to carry out Dr. Abbott's design on the general
lines which he had adopted. I have compiled the two indices,
recollated the first 176 pages with the mss., and recorded in the
Supplement such additions and corrections as I could supply.
I have not, however, thought it necessary to revise the descriptions
of the Book of Leinster or of our copy of the Book of Ballymote, as
their contents are fully dealt with in Atkinson's facsimile editions.
The case of the Yellow Book of Lecan is different : the facsimile
being unhappily very deficient, it seemed desirable to print any
additional information that would throw light on the history and
contents of this important volume. I should have liked to draw
more fully on the abundant marginalia of H. 3 . 17 and H. 3.18,
but considerations of economy made it necessary to study brevity.
I have, however, tried to notice all entries which helped to identify
the scribes or determine the dates of the mss. In some few cases
it has been necessary to rearrange the contents of a volume (e.g.
H. 4 . 22), and this has occasionally falsified the cross-references in
Dr. Abbott's pages, but such discrepancies can almost always be
corrected by consulting the indices. It seemed useless to attempt
to index thoroughly the tracts on law and medicine, as the account
given of these was inevitably unsatisfactory, since almost every-
thing has still to be done in these fields of study.
PREFACE.
It remains to acknowledge gratefully the help in various matters
that has been freely given to Dr. Abbott and to me by Mr. R. Flower,
Mr. R. I. Best, Professor O. J. Bergin, the Reverend C Plummer,
Professor H. J. Lawlor, Professor T. F. O'Rahilly, Mr. H. Wood
(of the Public Record Office), Dr. T. P. C. Kirkpatrick, and Mrs.
A. B. Hamilton. To our Librarian, Dr. J. G. Smyly, and to our
Assistant Librarian, Mr. A. De Burgh, I am deeply obliged for
their constant helpfulness and patience.
The long delay in the publication of this volume has been due
partly to my enforced absences from Dublin, partly to the pressure
of other College duties.
I add a few corrections :
No. 60 : the classing should be A. 1. 15, not A. 4 . 20.
No. 1089 : this number should be deleted.
No. 1293: for ' Bradley ' read ' Badley.'
No. 1363, p. 88*: for cucab read \i\icaX>.
No. 1415, p. 26 : for ' Geoffrey ' read ' Godfrey.'
No. 1433, p. 19 : the date should probably be read 1-541, or
perhaps 1542.

metamorphosed by the incantations of his stepmother.
O'Donovan states that this story is still told in the valley
of Glenconceine, Co. Deny, where some of the places
mentioned (including the site of King Arthur's Castle) are
pointed out. Hence he conjectured that the author was an
O'Kelly, the bard of the district. It preserves many now

and the following are enumerated by M. D'Arbois de

1765 by John.O'Conry (or O'Mulconry), ff. 65,
erroneously entitled ' Annals of Innisfallen,'
but see below. There is a copy from this MS.
in the B. M. Egerton, 98, 99.

Inserted is a letter from Dr. John O'Donovan, in which
he says : ' It appears from a letter (prefixed to the copy in
the Royal Irish Academy) in the handwriting of Theophilus
O'Flanagan, [who states that Dr. O'Brien made the
Bodleian copy of the Annals the basis of his compilation]
that the Dublin copy . . . was manufactured by the Rt. Rev.
John O'Brien, sometime R. C. Bishop of Cloyne.' It turns
out, says O'Donovan, to be nothing more than a collection
of entries from all sources, good, bad, and indifferent, such
as from Giraldus Cambrensis' Hibernia Expugnata, from
Hanmer's Chronicle, from the Caithreim Thoirdhealbhatgk,
and from every other authority, English and Irish, accessible
to the compilers. If published, he says, it ought to be
entitled, ' Annals of Ireland, compiled in France from
various authorities, Irish and English, in the year 1765, by
Mr. John Conry and Dr. John O'Brien.' O'Donovan adds,
however, that they ' had some Munster Annals which
we have not, and from them they have extracted various
passages relating to Desmond not to be found in any other
compilation that I know of. The chronology is through-
out corrected from Ware, Camden, and Hanmer, by
Dr. O'Brien. Dr. Chas. O'Conor has added in the margin
several marks and corrections.'

CATALOGUE OF IRISH MANUSCRIPTS, [1281, 1282
f. 1 74 are two poems of Toma Eigeas (both published in
Hardiman's Irish Minstrelsy) : —

Annales Ultonienses, a.d. 431—1504, in the hand-
writing of Rory O'Luinin (see f. 104^2). Copied,
according to O'Conor, from the Bodleian MS.
Rawlinson, 459.
These Annals were compiled by Cathal
Mac Manus, who d. 1498, and continued to 1541
by Roderick Cassidy, Archdeacon of Clogher.
See O'Conor's Bibliotheca MS. Stowensis, vol. i.,
p. 174. The present copy ends imperfect at the
year 1504. There are also wanting the leaves
containing the years 1 102-1 108, 1 1 15— 1 162, and
!374— !378. The first folio is numbered 12.
Edited by W. M. Hennessy in the Master of the Rolls'
Series, 1901. The Introduction by Rev. Dr. B. Mac Carthy
in vol. iv. O'Conor's edition (to 1131) in the fourth vol.
of Rer. Hib. Scriptores is pronounced by Dr. Mac Carthy
to be worthless.
ff. 12-15 contain a fragment of the 'Annals of Tigher-
nach.' On this fragment, see Dr. Todd's letter in O'Curry's
' MS. Materials,' p. 517, and O'Curry's own remarks. Also
R. C. xvin. 374. O'Donovan notes that the Four Masters
(MS. in R.I.A.) state that they had a copy of these Annals
before them, but he says that they have not always copied
them at full length, and he even suspects their accuracy
giving an example. The Annals of Tighernach have been
edited by W. Stokes (1897).

1283 fol. membr., s. xvii. h. i. 9.
A Medical Treatise (imperfect), ff. 38 (lettered on the
back ' Guido de Chauliac ' ).
This is a fragment of the treatise in No. 1435 (e. 3. 30)
and (imperfect) No. 1436 (e. 4. 1, p. 129 sqq.), beginning
' cum humane vite brevitas teste Hippocrate vix sufficiat
ad immense artis longitudinem.' The present fragment
begins with p. 19, 1. 3 of H35> and ends with 120, col. 2,
but with defects. It treats of apostemata, eruptive disorders,
wounds, etc. Avicenna, Allifius, Serapion, Dioscorides, and
others are quoted. On p. 27 Guido is quoted.
At the foot of p. 12, col. 2, is a definition of cancer:
' Cancer est apostemamelingcolicum,' No. 1435, p. 37, col. 2,
1. 10. After this about six fF. are wanting, p. 13 beginning
'l gac rjile cinel,' No. 1435, p. 43, col. 2, 1. 7, shortly after
the beginning of the section ; ' Simplicia mundificativa
sunt ista.' O'Donovan, being of course unaware of this
defect, states that 'the causes, symptoms, and treatment
of cancer are fully discussed.' ' Cancer,' by the way, had a
much wider signification than it has now. One-half of the
fol. 13, 14 has been cut away.
There are two additional, much mutilated folios at the
end of the volume, separated from the rest by a blank leaf.
On the second of these is : ' licit [sic'] avicenna mencionem
non facit de apostema [te] aquoso utile est nobis de
apostemate hie aliquam facere mencionem.'

Tales, Poems, etc., ff. 182, written in 1742 by Hugh
O'Daly :
fol. 1. A romantic tale entitled eaccyia ConnaiH
gulbain, 'The Adventures of Connall Gulban ' (son of
Niall of the Nine Hostages, and ancestor of the O'Donnells),
beg.: 'Rfg uaral oinnibe pfogoa jiacrhairi neim bipedc'
O'Donovan thought the tale was composed in the fifteenth
century. The style, he says, is verbose, and the narrative
childishly marvellous : cf. B.M. Catal., p. 633 (Add. 18,951)-
f. 46. ' The Adventures of Richard and Lisarda.' This
and the two following tales are translated from a Spanish
work entitled ' Para Todos : Exemplos Morales, Humanos
y Divinos,' by Juan Perez de Montalvan. Sec. ed., Sevilla,

same subject, beg. : THaips caipgeba aimpip. O'Donovan
states that some of the prophecies in this and the preceding
No. were translated by Denis Taaffe, and published in his
life of Columcille. Taaffe's book is not in this Library, nor
does it appear in the British Museum Catalogue. Some of
the prophecies were also published by O'Kearney in 1856.
O'Donovan gives a curious account of the popular belief as
to Columcille's book of prophecy supposed to be preserved
at Armagh and Derry, but concealed from public inspection.
That at Derry was in a chest which 'no man born of
woman ' was entitled to open. Hervey, Earl of Bristol and
Bishop of Derry, not being ' born of woman,' was said to
have opened it and found the MS. There is now no know-
ledge of any such book either at Armagh {teste Dr. Morgan)
or at Derry {teste Bp. Chadwick), nor any knowledge of the
tradition.

permission of my superiors, undertaken to purge of error,
rectify, and transcribe this old chronicle called Leabhar
Gabhdla. . . . This I could not accomplish without the
assistance of other chroniclers at some fixed abode.'
In the Bibliotheca MS. Stowensis, vol. i., p. 2, Dr. O'Conor
describes a twelfth-century vellum MS. of the original Leabhar
Gabhaltas, which formed the basis of this work, and, on
p. 143, he remarks that O'Clery's book differs very little
from this ancient copy.
The work has been translated (?) into French by Henri
Lizeray and William O'Dwyer. Paris, 1884. Some portions

Tales and Poems. Transcribed by Hugh O'Daly in
the year 1750.
f. 1. Pedigree of O'Malone.
f. 3. The tale entitled Tain B6 Cuailgne. Fragmentary,
transcribed from B. M. Eg. 1782 (a.d. 1419) : see Windisch's
'Tain,' Introd., lxiv. seq. Fergus macRoigh, the hero of
the tale, is represented as resuscitated for the purpose of
giving his account of the war. The tale has been edited
by Windisch in ' Irische Texte,' 1905 (LL. version). Also
by Prof. Strachan and Mr. J. G. O'Keeffe : Eriu, vol. i.
Suppl. See also ' Etudes sur le T. B. C.,' by M. D'Arbois
de Jubainville, Rev. Celt., vol. xxviii., and a French trans.,
ibid., p. 145.
f. 26 begins the story called Tochmarcc Etaine. On the
fourth page it passes without a break into the tale of the
Bruighean Da Derga. The T. E. is resumed on f. 40$, and,
on 42a, gives way again to the other tale, and is again
resumed on 43^, line 14, ending on 45a, 1. 9. For both
Tales, see No. 1318 (YBL), cols. 123, 716, and 876. The
present copy is transcribed from Eg. 1782. See Stokes'
ed. of ' Togci.il Bruidne Da Derga': Paris, 1902 (reprint
from Rev. Celt.).
f. 54. The Amhra or Eulogy of Columcille, reputed to
have been written by Dalian mac Forgaill (fl. 580), with
gloss. Professor Strachan, for good reasons, assigns it to
1288] TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN. 45
perhaps the early part of the ninth century, adding that it
is written in an artificial and intentionally obscure style
(R.C. xvii. 41). Stokes agrees {{bid. xx. 30). See No. 1318
(YBL), p. 680, and Liber Hymnorum, No. 1441 (edited by
Bernard and Atkinson). The present copy is from Eg. 1782.
The Introduction and glosses are much longer than those
in the L. H. It is, however, imperfect, ending with 479 of
L. H. The Amhra has been edited by Stokes from the
recension in Rawl. 502. See a facsimile of this in
" Anecdota Oxoniensia," edited by Prof. K. Meyer. The
Amhra was edited first by O'Beirne Crowe.
f. 81 begins the Leabhar Branach, or Book of the
O'Byrnes, of Glenmalur, consisting of poems chiefly in
praise of Hugh mac Shane O'Byrne {d. 1579): ' The war-
like opponent and plunderer of his English and Irish
neighbours.' See 'Four Masters,' a.d. 1579. There are
copies of some of these in B. M. Eg. 176, written by
O'Gorman, from which copious excerpts are given, with
illustrative notes in Mr. O'Grady's Catalogue, pp. 498 sqq.
An edition is in preparation for the Irish Texts Society,
from a better copy in the Harvaid University Library, of
which a photographic copy has been presented to this

'The Psalter of Tara, transcribed by Tadhg

1289] TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN. 5 ,
Invasions, the Book of the Eoganachts . . . .'
Much of this is from the Book of Ballymote.
The title ' Psalter of Tara' is, as O'Donovan observes, a
fictitious one, as writers are mentioned who flourished 600
years after the desertion of Tara.
The first 12 pp. not numbered contain a very minute
table of the contents.
pp. 1-2 1 contain a prose account of the six ages of the
world taken from Holy Scripture and the Fathers. BB. 3a.
See Zimmer, " Nennius Vindicatus," p. 225.

O'Reilly, ' Writers,' p. lxxix., under date a.d. 1065, says:
" At this period flourished Donnchuach O'Fuathgaile, a
cleric, who wrote a poem giving an account of Adam and
Eve, of Noah and his sons, and of the tribes or nations
sprung from them." Donnchuach is a corruption or mis-
understanding of a place-name (don chuaich maig = "from
the cuckoo's plain"). See Meyer, " Anecdota Oxoniensia,"

which it was probably copied (BB. 130 ft".), except that
where the gap occurs in the latter between 44 and 45
the matter is supplied from another copy. Includes :

Irish-English Dictionary by Tadhg O'Neachtan.
At the end is. a list of Irish and English names of plants
and trees. O'Donovan says : ' It contains a vast number
of words, and is very valuable as being the production of
a very able Irish scholar, who was born in 1671, and lived
during a period in which the ancient Irish language was
perfectly understood ; but it is very defective as a Dictionary*
inasmuch as it very seldom gives any examples to elucidate
the English interpretations of the various ancient words.
Notwithstanding this defect, it is a work of great authority,
and the meanings given of Irish words may be relied upon
as far as they go. O'Reilly copied the greater part of this
work into his Dictionary, but he does not tell us what
words he took from it.' O'Reilly, however, has many words
which are not in this book.

This is a satire on six of the O' Haras who forcibly took
refreshments in his house. In consequence of this satire
they returned and cut out his tongue, and otherwise so
maltreated him that he died. They seem also to have
murdered his wife and child. 'On the 30th June, 1617, an
Inquisition was held in Sligo by which it was found that the
six O'Haras (named) were attainted of the murder of Teige
dall O'Higgin, his wife, and child. See O'Reilly's ' Writers '

written by John Magrath, principal historian of the nobles
of Dal Cais in the year 1459. Transcribed by Andrew
Mac Curtin. There is a translation of this work in the
British Museum, Add. 20, 718, and Eg. 102. The former
MS. is, as far as the writing goes, the joint production of
Theophilus O'Flanagan and Peter O'Connell, but the
version is ' in many places so rude as to be unintelligible to
the mere English reader.' It is also inaccurate according
to O'Curry. The translation itself therefore cannot be
O'Connell's. There is a copy of this translation in the
library of the Royal Irish Academy, where there is also a
copy of the original Irish. O'Donovan states that the
original vellum MS. was in the possession of Sir W. Betham.

The last four pages of the volume contain Annals from
1 142 to 1150, which O'Donovan says may be part of the
' Chronicon Scotorum.'

The Annals of Kilronan, or of Loch Ce, a.d. 1014 to
1571-
There are 99 leaves of vellum and 36 of paper, many of
the latter blank. This book was formerly lettered on the
back, ' Tigernachi continuatio ' ; but O'Donovan claims to
have shown that it is the Book of the O'Duigenans of
Kilronan. O'Curry identifies it with the Annals of Loch
C& (MS. Materials of Irish History, p. 94 sqq.). The chief
transcriber was Philip Bradley, and the date of his tran-
scription 1588. There is a memorandum by David Duigenan
that the book contained three leaves and five score of
vellum. It has therefore lost four vellum leaves since this
was written.
The defects in the vellum are from the year 1138 to 1170.
Here six leaves of paper are inserted, but they are blank.
Again there is a defect from 13 16 to 1462. Here 22 paper
leaves are inserted, the first six of which are blank. The
entries on the remaining leaves are very scanty, and are
repeated twice. After 1462 the writing is in different
hands. There are also four paper leaves inserted after the
first folio, on one of which the contents of the first page
have been copied by John Mac Namee, 1698, that page
having even then been almost illegible. On another of
these leaves another copy of the same is written by Eugene
O'Curry, 1842. At the year 1256 is the story of the Battle
of Magh Slecht. Pub. by O'Curry, 'Materials,' p. 536:
Trans, at p. 101,.
The last page in the volume is wholly illegible.
In addition to the paper leaves enumerated above there
are four after the year 1061, but there is no chasm in
the original.
O'Curry discovered the continuation of these Annals to
the year 1590 in the British Museum, Clar. xlv. 4792, and
his copy of this is inserted in the present volume.
The work was edited by W. M. Hennessy in the Master
of the Rolls' series in 1871.

The Book of Ballymote (incomplete copy).
The original vellum Book of Ballymote, written about
1400, and formerly (1688) belonging to Trinity College, is
now in the library of the Royal Irish Academy, to which it
was presented by the Chev. O'Gorman in 1785. The text
has been published in facsimile by the Academy under the
editorship of Dr. Robert Atkinson.
The present copy was made in 1728 by Richard Tipper,
of Mitchellstown, in the parish of Castleknock, of whom
O'Reilly says, in his account of the contents of this MS.,
that 'to the industry of Tipper the Irish scholar and anti-
quarian is indebted for many copies of valuable antient
MSS., which he made from originals that are either not
extant or are locked up in libraries from the public'

000615 (10D615, MS.)- According to O'Donovan he is still
vividly remembered in the country of his birth (parish of
Templeport, Cavan). This Life does not materially differ
from that published by Colgan, but is more copious. The
body of the narrative is prose, but several poems and
extracts from poems are introduced, some of which are
attributed to the saint himself, but are clearly later. The
most remarkable are : —
p. 10. Sgeal oile aip Goo oaipioe. Here the saint is
called Aodh, Mo (= my) being often prefixed to the names
of saints, and the names of ancient ecclesiastics were
always thus changed upon entering holy orders. The
diminutive og was added for the sake of affection, and thus
Mo-Aodh-og became Maodhog = Mogue. This name, says
O'Donovan, was very common in Ferns about fifty years
before his writing as a Christian name, but it is now
modified to Moses. In Mr. Registrar-General Matheson's
report on ' Varieties and Synonyms of Surnames and
Christian Names in Ireland (Dublin, 1901),' Moses and
Mogue are stated to be used as equivalents (p. 29).

Annals of the Four Masters, Part I. (from a.m. 2242
to a.d. 1 171), 2 vols., 4to.
The ' Four Masters ' were Michael, Conary, and Cucogry
(or Peregrine) O'CIery, and Ferfeasa (or Fergus) O'Mulconry.
The designation ' Four Masters ' was given to them by
Colgan in the Preface to his ' Acta Sanctorum Hiberniae,'
and was, perhaps, suggested to him by the fact that
' Quatuor Magistri ' had been long previously applied by
the medical writers of the middle ages to the Four Masters
of the medical sciences (O'Donovan). Previously to Colgan
the work had been called ' Annates Dungallenses,' having
been compiled in the convent of Donegal, a Franciscan
foundation, The work was undertaken under the patronage
and for the use of Fergal O'Gara, Lord of Moy O'Gara
and Coolavin, Co. Sligo, the original dedication to whom,
in the handwriting of Michael O'CIery, is in the copy in
the Royal Irish Academy. It was begun 22nd January,
1632, and finished 10th August, 1636. In the same copy is
the original testimonium signed by the superiors of the
convent, in which are enumerated the works collected and
used by the compilers, which were, the Annals of Clon-
macnoise, Annals of Oilean na Naomh, an island in Lough
Ree [these two only came down to 1227], Annals of Senat
Mac Magnus on the lake of Erne (now called the Ulster
Annals), Annals of the O'Maolconarys, Annals of Kilronan,
compiled by the O'Duigenans, also the Annals of Lecan,
compiled by Mac Firbis. For the later parts of the work
are mentioned also the Book of Cucogry O'CIery (1281 to
1537), the Book of Maolin Og Mac Bruaideada (1588 to
1603), the Book of Lugaid O'CIery (1586 to 1602).
These two volumes were transcribed by Hugh O'Molloy,
from the autograph in the possession of Chas. O'Conor of
Belanagare for Dr. John O'Fergus, in the year 1734-5.
They are paged continuously, vol. i. ending with p. 536;
vol. ii. containing pp. 537 to 1023. Prefixed to the first
volume are copies of the dedication and the testimonia.

Annals of the Four Masters, Part II. (1335 to 1608).
This is an original copy, that is to say, it is for the most
part in the handwriting of Conary O'CIery, the hands of
1301, 1302] TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN. 83
the other two O'Clerys, however, appearing frequently
throughout the volume (O'Donovan, Introductory Remarks,
p. xviii).
There is a considerable quantity of inserted matter in the
handwriting of Roderick O'Flaherty, author of ' Ogygia,'
to whom the Annals were lent and explained by his tutor,
Duald Mac Firbis, the last of the hereditary antiquaries of
Lecan. ' His insertions are very valuable, for two reasons,
because the work from which he took them is no longer
extant, and because we have his authority for the meaning
of many now obsolete terms.' We next find the volume in
its present imperfect state in the possession of John Conry,
of Dublin, in 1724 (see Abp. Nicholson's account of Conry's
MSS. in his Irish Historical Library). After Conry it came
into the possession of Dr. John Fergus, or O'Fergus, of
Dublin, who had it bound in 1739.
The first fol. is numbered 687, the last 11 50, but there
is some irregularity in the numbering.
The Royal Irish Academy possesses what is apparently
the original autograph of the entire work, ' being the very
copy which passed from the representatives of the O'Gara
family into the hands of Chas. O'Conor.' It was presented
to that body in 1831 by Dr. Geo. Petrie, who had bought
it at the sale of Col. Burton Conyngham's library.
No doubt, as O'Donovan observes, each of the Four
Masters made a copy, of which he afterwards disposed,
and he adds, that " it will yet be discovered that there is
another copy at Louvain, which O'Clery made for the use
of Colgan, who first sent him to Ireland to collect materials
for his ' Acta Sanctorum.' "
The text of the Annals was first published complete by
Dr. John O'Donovan, who added an English translation and
a large body of learned annotations. 7 vols., 4to ; Dublin,
1851. See No. 1405, for a copy of a MS. in the R. I. A.

p. 13. Ode addressed to Hugh O'Neill, chief of the
Northern Hy-Niall, enumerating the rights and duties of
the king, beginning : Ceapc gac pi cu p6il 00 clanaib

Amongst the duties are, not to remain one year without
giving battle or taking a spoil, and to make Lagenians pay
him the Borumean tribute. O'Donovan thinks the O'Neill
addressed was the celebrated Hugh, who lived in the reign
of Elizabeth. O'Curry assigns him the date a.d. 798, and
says the poet was Fothaidh na Canoine, and that the poem
was addressed to Aed Ordnide, overking of Ireland, 773-817,

modern hand.

imprimis coegit antiquos disputare de naturis ciborum.
This includes much about the varieties of birds, beasts, and
fishes. The contents of the chapters are given in a com-
paratively modern hand^on p. 189. O'Donovan thinks the
treatise is a translation of or commentary on a work by the
physician Isaac.

paging is in brackets.
p. 1. Fragment of a medical work on laxative medicines,

the middle.
p. 11. Portions of the Seanchus Mor. Treatises on the
laws relating to divisions of tribes in a territory, also those
relating to bees, to mills and watercourses, of the seven
grades of poets; part of the Cain Aigillne; the Corus
bescna, etc. The text is accompanied with copious inter-
linear gloss. At the top of p.'n Edw. Lhwyd has written
his name and the words ' Liber 2" s constat fol. 28.'-
The Seanchus Mor is said to have been compiled by
three Kings, three Brehons, and three Bishops in the time
of St. Patrick, who was one of the three bishops. The
heading in this MS. is in a modern hand, which O'Donovan
thought to be that of Duald Mac Firbis. There are three
distinct fragments, in all, 26 ff, 14" x 10". The tract,
PP- 39-4 2 > has been separated by the binder from its con-
tinuation, p. 47. At the bottom of p. 36 is a memorandum
1316] TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN. 91
in Irish, written by Hugh, son of Conor MacEgan, in the
year 1350, which he calls the second year of the plague. A
second memorandum, containing a prayer for preservation of
himself and friends through this plague, is dated Christmas
night, and in it Hugh Mac Egan says that he wrote this
'in his own father's book.'
p. 67. A historical fragment. Begins imperfect, with an
account of the demolition of Conaing's Tower on Tory
Island, which is followed by an account of the blinding of
king Cormac Mac Airt, and of the expulsion of the Deisi
from Meath. This is a later version of the tale in the
Bodleian MS., Rawl. B. 502, published in ' Cymmrodorion,'

with considerable differences of reading. This copy ends
imperfect with Atkinson, line 6354.
p. 71. A fragment of 8 ff. in smaller folio, 12" x <)£",

illegible.

day. I Fland.' The glossary ends on p. 115 ; the first two
leaves are much mutilated.

Cormac's Glossary was edited by Dr. Whitley Stokes,
"Three Irish Glossaries," London, 1862. He calls this
copy Codex C. Again, transl. by O'Donovan, ed. Stokes.

in No. 1338.
p. 43(120). 8 ff. Another Irish Glossary on a larger
scale, defective at the beginning. It wants all of A and

O'Donovan remarks that Ussher was in error when he
stated in his Primordia that the Irish name of Fore was
Baile Leabhar, ' Town of Books.' The local pronunciation
of Baile Fhobhair, he says, sounds to an illiterate Irishman
like Bail' leabhar.

battle of Magh Rath, which was published by O'Donovan
from this MS. (two years after he had written this part of
his catalogue), for the Irish Archaeological Society (1842).
He omits the four quatrains appended to the tale in the
MS. Hence his remark that "in the MS. no notice is
given that the story ends here"; since the quatrains pre-
cede the pinic. Cols. 281, 282 are now almost wholly

It is " valuable for the light it throws on the superstitions
of the ancient Irish before the Anglo-Norman invasion."

the scribe at the end it appears that it was written by
Morogh O'Cuindilis, ' the second year after the coming of

was a great plague on men and cattle in the same year.

Col. 500 (217) begins the Leabhar Ollamhan, which com-
prises the Uraicept; an account of the Ogams, etc. (ff. 18J),
written in 1408. The scribe has written (in Irish) several

candle from you by scheming.' Cols. 518, 519 : 'This is a

except myself, and may God forgive this to me and to the
woman that gave me light, i.e. Sheela.' Cols. 520,521 :
' This is a bad page, the worst of all, and bad luck to the
woman who is in fault who set my mind from one land to
another.'

Miscellanea.
These two volumes, formerly one, are made up of various
fragments, some quarto, some small folio, of various ages,
and treating of different subjects.
The first 82 pp., now separately bound as No. 1, are on
paper, and contain a translation of some Latin work treating
of the principal incidents in the Life of Christ, with pious
meditations. The leaves are in disorder, the Finding in
the Temple being on p. 77 ; the Descent into Hell, p. 61 ;
the Resurrection, p. 60 ; the Ascension, p. 66 ; and the
1319] TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN.
Passion, p. 2. The headings of the sections are in Latin.
On p. 22 are the " Canticum primi parentis," and " Canti-
cum Noie pro se et generatione sua"; p. 51, "Canticum
Abraham et Isac," and " Canticum Moysi Finies et
Iosu"; p. 52, [Canticum] David pro se et generatione
sua," and "Canticum Esdrae " ; p. 49, " [Canjticum
Ionnes Baptistes"; p. 43, " Quomodo Ionnes misit disci-
pulos." The beginning of this section agrees with
No. 1 3 16, p. 95. On pp. 29 to 36 is inserted a fragment
consisting of four leaves, and containing an account of
the martyrdom of St. Catherine, continued on pp. 45, 46,
and 81, 82. On p. 45 is a fragment of a religious poem.
The second volume is vellum.
The first fragment beginning with p. 83 consists of
three and a half leaves of a medical work treating of
apostemata, etc. (small folio). Half the first leaf has been
cut off, and the first page (not numbered) is wholly illegible.
It appears to be of the fifteenth century.
p. 90. Fragment consisting of eleven leaves, small folio,
of the same age as the last. Contains a curious account of
the Bolgic and Tuatha D6 Danann colonies, and a very
circumstantial account of the battle of Magh Tuiredh
(Moytura), fought between these colonies near Cong, where
many of the monuments here mentioned still remain. On
p. 99, col. 2, line 16, the scribe has given his name, Cormac
O'Cuimin.

revealed by the Blessed Virgin to St. Anselm : cf. No. 1363.
p. in. Fragment of the tale called Breisleach Mhor

treating of the early history of Greece, of Jason and the
golden fleece, pp. 1 19-126 is the Voyage of the Ship Argo.
p. 127 begins the Destruction of Troy. This consists of
two fragments, circa 1400. The first corresponds with
Dares Phrygius, ed. Meister, from end of cap. 2 to cap. n
inch, and from cap. 14 to middle of cap. 19, but with much
additional matter ; the second begins with the end of
cap. 20 and continues to cap. 44. Ed., with trans., by

p. 172. Nine leaves belonging to the beginning of the
great Book of Lecan.
The great Book of Lecan was in this Library in 1688,
when the first extant Catalogue of MSS. was compiled (the
same Catalogue a copy of which was supplied to Bernard
for his ' Catalogus '). At that time these nine leaves were
wanting: see Bernard, No. 257. It seems to have been
carried to France in the reign of James II, and in 1787,
through the Abb6 Kearney, of Paris, it was presented to the
then recently founded Royal Irish Academy, in whose
Library it is now preserved. By a singular fate, the nine
leaves which were missing in 1688 have found their way
to the shelves where the remainder of the book formerly
stood. These were identified by O'Curry. These leaves
have since been transposed so as to follow p. 193.
p. 172. An account of the Britons, translated from
Nennius. Imperfect at the beginning. The first line = the

The author states in his instructions for the reader that
his authorities for the hard words were ' Michael O'Clery,
Archbp. Flathri O'Mulconry, Doctor Keating, Parrthas an
Anama, and an old vellum MS. in which I found a copy of
the Foras Focal, and particularly Michael O'Clery's Sanasan
Nua and the old vellum aforesaid, also Ceilidh na h-iosgaide
leithe Mac an Iolair, the Madadh Maol and some lists of
hard words, with many other authorities which I do not
now remember, and the common language for the greater
part of the rest.'

original in Marsh's Library, for Edward Lhwyd, who used
it in preparing his" < Archaeologia ' for the press. See

entry to the following effect :— ' This is the sum for which
this book is pledged to John O'Cannavan, viz. two ounces,
which he gave to the wife of Donuell O'Cannavan, in the
presence of Maudlin, the daughter of Kennedy, and two
bonnas (groats), which he asked of me again at the door of

being eight pence and two ounces in all.' p. 49 begins
the second fragment. At col. 1, line 18, is the heading:

The Dinnseanchus.
This work treats of the names of Irish lakes, mountains,
etc. Transcribed by John O'Keenan, but with no indication
of the date except that it was before Christmas, and that
John O'Mulconry was sick at Ardkyle. O'Donovan says
this John O'Mulconry kept a celebrated school at Ardkyle,
near Six Mile Bridge, county Clare, in the reign of Elizabeth,
and was the writer of an Ode addressed to Brian na Murtha
O'Rouarc, who, according to Lord Bacon, was, at his own
request, hanged with a gad according to his own country
fashion. The poems of the Dinnseanchus have been edited
by Mr. E. J. Gwynn in the Todd Lecture Series.

arranged. The leaves are disarranged : pp. 1-10 ought to be

pp. zi-30. The beginning is p. 11 : 'Ambra Spermaceti.'
O'Donovan was misled by the disorder of the ff., and says
that all before 'Carduus benedicte'. is wanting. O'Donovan
says it seems to be a translation of a little work on Materia
Medica which issued from the Medical School at Mont-
pelier in 1303. At the bottom of pp. 32, 33 is an inscription
in the ' Ogam Craobh ' character.
The second tract, beginning 65, consists of 25 if., and
treats of the manner of preparing plants, etc., for use. If
is not arranged alphabetically. On pp. 81 and 100 appears,
in a later hand, the name of Dermod O'Sheil. The family
of O'Sheil were hereditary physicians from a remote period.
On the margin of several pages appears the name of John
M'Namara, described more fully on p. 8z as ' of Torthill,
near Castle-president, one of his Majesties Attorneys at
Law, sworn .lawyer in Tilliscourt, London.' 'This John
was well known in Dublin as a collector of Irish MSS.'
This book was bought at Vallancey's sale in 1792. It is

The penmanship is beautiful, and many of the capitals
are ornamented with red, green, and silver. In some of
the initial letters grotesque figures of animals are intro-
duced. There is a copious gloss. From a note at the
bottom of p. 1 we learn that the volume belonged to
Duald Mac Firbis in 1666. A notice at the bottom of
col. 161 informs us that this part of the volume was
transcribed by John Mac Egan, of Ormond ; and from other
memoranda at the bottom of cols. 193, 194., and the top
of col. 223, it appears that it was transcribed in Leinster,
and belonged to Edmond O'Doran, who was hereditary
Brehon of that province. In the mem. on 193, 194 the
scribe excuses his bad writing by the badness of the ink
and the coldness of the weather, which was Christmas time.
This tract ends col. 225 ; then follows a tract on the

Miscellanea.
Though bound in quarto form, this volume includes frag-
ments of books of various sizes and different ages. The
first three leaves are not included in the pagination. The
first of these is mutilated, and on the recto wholly illegible.
On the verso it contains part of an Irish Law tract. The
second and third contain part of a Latin Psalter, which
seems to have had the two versions, namely, that of Jerome
and the Vulgate, on alternate pages. The first page is
almost illegible, but we can see that it contained Ps. lxxi.
9-2)0 in Jerome's version from the Hebrew ; the following
page contains Ps. lxxi. 21 J to lxxii. 8 in the Vulgate, with
marginal glosses in Latin. The next leaf begins with
Ps. lxxiii. 3-170 in Jerome's version ; the verso contains
Ixxiii. 17^ to lxxiv. 2a, with marginal glosses (illegible).
(Incorrectly described by O'Donovan.)
Passing to the numbered pages —
Of the first leaf only a very small fragment remains. At
the top of p. 1 is a memorandum by Edw. Lhwyd, stating

hard of O'Neill of Clannaboy).

Collection of Poems, p. 304.
Transcribed by Hugh O'Daly.
This MS., as far as p. 220, is beyond question copied
from h. 5. 10, No. 1382, the prose pieces being omitted.
First, the poems in both MSS. are in the same order,
apart from the interposition of the prose pieces in 5. 10.
Secondly, in the case of Keating's three poems, the
collations given by Fr. MacErlean in his edition of Keating-
enable us to assert that where 5. 10 differs from all the
other copies collated, the present MS. agrees with it, and
this is particularly important where the peculiarity consists
in the omission of two or more lines. Thirdly, a very
striking proof is the blank space after bipcounc on p. 25.
In 5. 10 there has been a name, as appears from the trace
of two letters remaining, but the rest of the name is lost
in consequence of the wearing of the margin of the page.
Note also the reading mentioned below under p. 9.
The headings down to p. 60 are in a better hand than
O'Daly's.

quoted below, seems to show that this section stood first when
he bought the volume. The Uraicept which occupies most
of this section was written by two scribes, probably of
the fifteenth century, working alternately. One signs him-
self ' Sairbre/^ach ' on p. 169; the other, who writes a
squarer and more laborious hand, signs ' Aod ' on
pp. 177, 184, 200. He cannot, however, be the Aod Core
whose signature appears on pp.44, 48. See below, Scribal

some places where they differ the readings of this text
have been written into No. 13 18 in a late hand (Charles
O'Conor's). The Auraicept runs on to p. 186, which is the
end of a gathering of 1 4. ff. It is continued on the small
leaf (pp. 197-8), but not on its conjugate (pp. 199, 200).
It then goes back to p. 187, and ends on p. 210.
The Auraicept has been lately edited by the Rev. G.

three stanzas beginning : Leisio clann t)orhnuill bo t)ia :

the second, two stanzas, in English script, beginning:

Note. — O'Curry, probably by a slip of* memory, states that
this volume contains fragments of the Fled Bricrend
('Materials,' pp. 193,194). It is not so. The error is
noted by Windisch ('Irische Texte,' 1880, p. 236, note).
Scribal Notes and Marginalia.
Different parts of the volume were written at different
dates and by different hands, but it is probable, judging
by the script, that the legal sections (pp. 1-37 and
54-79 and 85-88), and also pp. 40-52 and the sections
containing the Auraicept, &c. (pp. 159-210), are the
work of the same school, which may have been kept
by a branch of the McEgan family, to whom many legal
and other manuscripts are due. One member of this
family, Cosnamach mac Aedagain, signs his name in
full on p. 63 m. inf. (where he styles himself pep an
liubmp pi), and on p. 86, m. inf. His Christian name
occurs frequently, sometimes as Cosnaidh, sometimes
Cosnamach. Two scholars of his name are mentioned
by the Four Masters, under the dates 1422 and 1529,
but there is nothing to show whether either of these is our
scribe. His hand is very similar to some of those employed
in Nos. 1336 and 1337 (codices of the sixteenth century);
but it might very well belong to the fifteenth. Cosnamach
wrote certainly pp. 85-88 of our manuscript, and probably
a good part of pp. 54-79, and he may have taken a share
also in pp. 1-37 ; but there seems to be at least one other
hand at work on this legal matter, similar in style to his.
The two hands employed on the Auraicept are also similar,
and it may be noted that Sairbrethach, the name of one
of these two scribes, was used bv the McAedhagains : see
FM index. 5
The section containing pp. 40-53, which is the most
interesting part of the ms., was written by two or more
scribes. One of them gives us his name in a note at the
end of the poem Cpocaip inbna (p. 46) : m Ifn na cuicpe
na punna po cabpao oipbi bon pspibneoip .1. bo Roigne
mac pingin. Another called Aed Core (he does not <-ive
his surname) wrote the following notes :
1363] TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN. 213
p. 44 at end of the Mongan story : 00 cup cupnab baoo
bubepca ap pinim bo mongan anuaparca (?) nf em (?) lin
7 bo mongan 7 baeo.
p. 48. m. sup. Q muipe mop ae& cope inbiu bo
p[cpfb].
No part of the text of this section seems to have been
written by Cosnamach mac Aedagain, but he has signed his
name in the upper margin of pp. 46, 47, 50, and the stanzas
given below, and many other marginalia in pp. 40-52, are in
his hand : so that this section also was probably written in
the school to which he belonged. Another scribe called
Duach wrote part of pp. 38-9, which show the work of two
or three scribes, and stand apart (in handwriting) from the
preceding and following leaves. The entry is (p. 39, last
line): mipi buac in Xmchaig f peapail abuibe. Cf. note
printed above under p.' 83.
On p. 70, last line, occurs this note : pin 7 mipi in
paelmac pacac a cill 1 bonnacain 7 lp inbfp lium in
paec pin bimig opum. Cell Ui Donnacain is not given in
Hogan's Onomasticon ; but O'Donnagain's country was
Ara Tire, near Nenagh, and this would agree with another
note on p. 78, marg. : pin 7 an upmumam bam 7 bocpaib

such as Lusmag, in King's County ?) 7 me eip c6c lucu

(partly) written in a school kept by the Ormond branch
of the MacEgans : cf. Introduction to facs. of L. Breac, p. xvii.

The entry on p. 169, last line, already referred to, runs :

The sections written by Cosnamach and his fellows are
liberally provided with other marginalia, stanzas, and
remarks of the usual kind, — pious ejaculations, complaints
•of pen, ink, or vellum, of cold or homesickness, and
personalities about the scribe's companions — these last
sometimes unintelligible, perhaps intentionally so. Here
are some specimens : —

none legible in xi. Section xii seems to have been written

Poems and Genealogies.
Once a well-written volume, now much stained and frayed,
but the leaves are carefully mounted and rebound. Many
leaves are missing and replaced by the binder with blank
paper, and some of those that remain are imperfect.
Part of no. 1291 was copied by Hugh O'Daly from
this volume, which was already at that date (1755) in a
fragmentary condition. This becomes clear when the
poems which are incomplete in this volume are compared
with the copies in 1291, which show exactly the same
defects: see, for instance, pp. 104, 138, 181, and especially
pp. 213, 243. But some poems which are now defective in
this codex are complete in 1291, showing that some leaves
have been lost since the copy was made. In many passages
where this volume is soiled O'Daly's copy is quite meaning-
less. A note in 129 1 says that the scribe is copying from
' leabhar ui Suildubhain ' : so our MS. belonged to F. S.
Sullivan. The original format is exactly like that of No.
1 3 8 1 , and the hand is very similar to that of Turlough
O'Reilly, who wrote most of that MS. Probably this volume
was written, a little earlier, by one of the same family.

Collection of Poems.
In an old leather cover, a volume of 95 ff. (pp. 5-194),
much soiled, written by three or more scribes, one of
whom, Turlough O'Reilly, signs on pp. 125, 137, &c.
Other O'Reillys have scribbled their names here and there.
Also two leaves detached, and quite independent of the
volume and of each other, here numbered pp. 1-4. This
MS. was once in Hugh O'Daly's hands (see pp. 62-3), and
he seems to have copied from it a large part of No. 1291.
Cp. description of No. 1378.
Pp. 1-2. The scribe Feidhlime Mhaguidhir (?) explains
that this is ' the preface at the end ' of a little book which
he has finished on January 16th, 1698, and which he leaves
to Father Thomas O'Droma.

Poems, etc.
Written by Shane O'Sullivan in 1703, as appears from his
note on p. 172. His name appears also p. 61 to p. 77.
Dates are attached to several of the poems, one of which
(p. 61) also has the place of composition, a lobdn. Of
these dates all but one are found also in No. 1360 (which
is copied from this codex). They are clearly dates of com-
position, not of transcription. There are many diffeiences
of spelling between the two mss., and a few verbal
differences.
The volume is bound in two vellum leaves, which con-
tain portions of a Latin homily, or perhaps rather of a tract
on church ritual, with rubricated headings.
The first page is blank, except for the name of the scribe.
The first four lines on p. 2 cannot be made out in con-
sequence of the wearing away of the margin. Then we
have Cat>5 puao mac Concubap bo TTI . . ., beginning:
Nf capla le paicce a cceannca aip caog, followed by
Ppeaspa aip pm 6 TTlagnup. Begins: Cabe an paopla
po capluig ab ceannpa a Cabg.
p. 3. Corresponds to p. 1 of No. 1360, and from this to
P- 77 (79 °f r 3 6 °) the contents of the two books are the
same, and it is unnecessary to repeat the list.
pp. 78-1 1 1 contain extracts from Keating's History; the
text differs somewhat from Dinneen's edition.
p. 78. Story of the war between Diarmait, son ofFeargus,
king of Leinster, and Guaire, son of Colman, originating
in a charge brought by an old woman, Sinneach Cro,
against the latter. Begins : Cln peaccmab bliabain bon
pfg Oiapmaic, as in Keating (ed. Dinneen iii, 58).
p. 82. Story of St. Mochua, brother of Guaire, and his
miraculous provision of flesh meat for his deacon ; and that
the story is true is proved by the name of the well beside
which the -Saint had been keeping Lent, viz. Bothair na
Mias. See Keating ut supr. iii, 64.
1382] TRINITY COLLEGE, DUBLIN. 241
p. 83. Story of Breasal, son of King Diarmaid, son of
Feargus, and of St. Becan, who restored him to life.
p. 85. Of Guaire, son of Colman, Cuimin Foda, son of
Fiachra, and Caimin, of Inis Cealtrach, and the answers
of each to the question what he would most desire to
have in his power. Keating iii, 68.
There is a gap between pages 86 and 87. The old
numbering passes from 86 to 95. Some leaves have been
removed containing the beginning of the story of St.
Columba, as told by Keating.
p. 95. Story of St. Columcille, and his furtive copy of a
book of Fionntan (here called a Gospel). Begins with the
words : Soipseal ap leaban pionncom 5cm piop. Keating
iii, line 1390.
Ibid. Story of Columcille and the queen, wife of Aodh,
and mother of Conall, whom with her maiden he turned
into cranes because of their disrespectful reception of him.
Followed by an account of the negotiations between king
Aodh and the Saint, with the three demands of the latter.

Edw. Lhwyd's Papers.
1. 4to. Grammatica Latino-Hibernica. The first part
written originally at Louvain, and dated 19th September, 1669.
A note is added, p. 51 : ' Copia vera. Hanc grammaticam
paulo mutatam Romse edidit Mollovius A. 1677.' This is
doubtless the MS. grammar mentioned by hhwyd, Arckcsohgm,
p. 299. Followed (p. 52) by a treatise, De Poesi (being
chap, ix of the grammar), written in Latin, with examples in
Irish. Dated at the end 1706.
2. Oblong. Explanation of Irish names of places
(4 leaves). Then 2 pp. of extracts from the Book of
Armagh. Then a slip with a note in Welsh from Lhwyd to
Mr. Alban Thomas, asking about a Gaelic MS. belonging to
Lord Clarendon. Then a small page with a poem by
Seumas mac Mmread/iaigh, priest of Cill Dalltan, beginning :
86 bo bhedcha a phocl6ip chaoimh, complimenting Lhwyd
on his Foclbir (see the Archaologia after the Preface). Below

man, who was hanged at Dublin for robbery.' Finally, the
verses addressed to Edw. Lhwyd by Robert Campbell.
Archceologia, ut sup.
3. 16" x 11". Fragment of a comparative vocabulary of
Latin, Welsh, Cornish, and Armoric, from Ob to the end of
the alphabet. This is much less full than the comparative
vocabulary in the Archceologia, yet many words are given
which are not there.
The Cornish is generally quoted with Lh. added. Some
of the Armoric words appear to have been written bv a
Frenchman.
This is followed by a list of Latin words from Nadir to
the end of the alphabet, with spaces left for the insertion of
Welsh and Armoric words ; but many of these spaces have
never been filled.
4. The Welsh Preface to the Archceologia.
This seems to be the copy prepared for press, as it has
on the margin directions to the printer. It only extends
to the end of the third printed page.
5. Three Armoric Vocabularies, and a Charter.
The first (11 pp.) begins with C (except for one line
under B) ; the second (6 pp.), in a different hand, begins
with Di, and does not proceed beyond Pe. These two differ
very much as to the words included. The first contains
words not in the vocabulary printed by Lhwyd. It has a
supplementary page to the letter G. The second was
originally written in Armoric and French (the English is
added by another hand) ; it contains a few of the words in
the printed book. The third consists of 4 pp. of a Latin-
French-Armoric vocabulary containing only the letters
PQRS.
There is also included in this portion an imperfect copy
of a charter relating to the Abbey of Strata Florida (3 pp.).
6. Ms. of the Irish Grammar printed in the Archceologia
(imperfect). Also 4 pp. of Notes relating to Irish pronuncia-
tion and orthography, written by Edw. Lhwyd.
7. Various fragments of the Irish Preface to Lhwyd's Irish-
English Dictionary, Archceologia, pp. 310 sqq.
8. Part of the printed text of Lhwyd's Irish-English
Dictionary, containing sheets LMNOPTZ, Aa to Ee,
with copious MS. notes and additions by O'Flaherty,
author of ' Ogygia,' dated 23rd October, 1704. These notes
have been used by Lhwyd in his Appendix.
9. A sheet 61" x 32", containing on one side an Irish-
Latin Vocabulary, and on the other a Latin-Basque
Vocabulary.

Dr. John O' Donovan's Papers.
Given by him in 1845. According to his letter (No. 1
below) some of these papers are in the writing of Haliday
and O'Reilly. Others have come from the O'Neachtains.
1. A letter from John O'Donovan (probably addressed to
Dr. J. H. Todd) relating to the manuscript No. 1399, and
other matters.
2. Extracts from the Book of Fermoy in an eighteenth-
century hand. " It seems to have been written for old
Michael Casey " (O'D.'s note).
3. More extracts from the Book of Fermoy, illustrating the
meanings of old Irish words, written probably by Michael of
Cnoc Firinne, an old herb doctor, who made a noise in the
newspapers about a.d. 1824-5 (O'D.'s note).
4. Envelope containing various fragments.
5. Envelope containing .(1) a Compendium of Irish

Rev. Paul O'Brien to E. O'Reilly : lp parja tope gan bdil

6. Envelope containing several fragmentary vocabularies.
7. A leaf of a vellum Irish MS., which, according to
O'D.'s letter (above), seems to have formed part of a medical
MS. lent by him to O' Curry. Treats of the operation of
different medicines : ulceraiina, adustina, corrosiua, etc. : the
last being stupefadma {sic).

Written, according to O'Reilly, by Michael O'Clery, or
one of his co-labourers, and purchased by O'Reilly from one
of the O'Clery family: see O'Donovan's letter in No. 1398.
But the date 1679 on ff. 18, 39, etc., as well as the hand-
writing, shows that it cannot have been the work of any
of that band of scholars. The volume was presented by
Dr. O'Donovan in 1845. The first six folios are wanting.

This volume seems to be made up of two independent
fragments, written by different scribes. The first extends
to the end of f. 54, where the scribe signs his name Labras
o Tharann, Aug. 28, 1777. He has numbered his pages
from the present p. 25 to p. 106 (203-257 : the numbers
212-4 ar e repeated). The second part, in a much better
hand, is paged 301-380 (now 109 to end).

Transcript and Translation of the preceding Deeds,
by Eugene O'Curry.
The transcript includes Todd's Nos. 15-21, which were
in O'Curry's own possession. The original of No. 22 is
in the British Museum (Egerton, No. 139, p. 179). That
of No. 23 is in this Library (No. 1337, p. 455). It is a
judgment of four Brehons in a controversy respecting land,
and is interesting as showing that, in 1561, which is the
date of the document, the Brehon Law continued to be
practised (as indeed it was for at least 100 years after).
There is also a transcript of No. 24 (Latin), and a ten-
tative transcript of No. xxv, headed ' Hardiman's Deeds,
No. xxui ' ; No. 26 is not transcribed.

Grammar and Prosody.
p. 1. Tract on Grammar and Prosody. At p. 38 the
handwriting changes. After p. 99 there is a break, with
three blank pages : the subject is resumed in a different
hand (that of Tuileagna O'Mulconry) on p. 103. At the
end of the tract (p. 108) this scribe adds a prayer for
' him who began this grammar, viz. Tadhg 6g, son of
Tadhg Dall O'Higgin, and for him for whom it is written,
viz. Father Patrick Tyrrell.' pp. 109 and 112 blank:
on pp. no, in there seems to have been an elaborate
erasure. On p. 113 begins another Prosody, 'written by
Giollabhrighde O'Hussey,' followed by a short tract on
faults to be avoided (p. 167). This also is ascribed on
p. 113 to the same author, pp. 154-5 were left blank
at first by accident; on p. 154 is written in a very small
neat hand the poem: beic na hdonap bom lairh fteip
(6 st.), followed by a stanza in Ogham Craobh beginning :
an agus amh agus as. and signed in the same script mise
Conas (? Conan) Dubhda.
On p. 177, at end of the prosody, there is a colophon,
signed by Tuileagna O'Mulconry, dated 25th Sept., 1659,
saying that he has finished ' this little grammar,' in Madrid,
for Father Patrick Tyrrell of the Order of St. Francis : -| nf

Grammar and Medicine.
There are 26 folios: 1-12 have been trimmed by the binder:
the vellum is coarse, and the script large and clumsy.
Of if. 13-26 the vellum is smoother and the script is small,
the work of a trained scribe.
p. 1. Poem by Dublitir ua Huathgaile, beginning :
R61015 bam a t)6, etc. 93 st. (?) See No. 1284, 153$, and
LL. 141^, with Atkinson's Introduction, p. 32. The first
page is much rubbed.
p. 3. The Leabhar Ollamhan or Auraicept na nEices.
This copy (not used in Calder's edition) begins like that in
YBLfacs., p. 217 (= No. 13 18, 500): Opbeapab cyia ubbaip
na nJ5ait>eal, but it differs considerably from both YBL
and BB. The text is accompanied by a copious gloss
which is ascribed (p. 3 m. sup.) to Cennfaolad mac Oiliolla.
Ends incomplete with p. 24: Nem nime na nime, etc..
= BB. 330^45. On p. 16 m. inf., there is a note written
perhaps by the scribe of this tract: Op m6p ion ma-^eadh
bo pedan 6 piagail uec (= beic) a$ iapaig ollamnacca
a pine p6in.
p. 25. Treatise of boils, paralysis, and other disorders,
beginning : " Apostemata et tumor idem sunt secundum
anticos ut disid [_sic~\ Gailienus." This agrees with No. 1435,
p. 137, col. 2, where, however, this is not the beginning of a
treatise.
After p. 34 (= No. 1435, 1541228) six folios have been
wrongly "inserted : they are slightly smaller, and are written
by two different scribes, a change in hand occurring at
p. 43^36. They treat of diseases of the eyes (35a), ears (35*),
nose (36^), teeth (37S), mouth (38^) ; of quinsy (40a), cough
(401$), pleurisy, etc. (41^), tremor cordis (44a), pains in the
stomach (45^), singultus (46$), unnatural appetite {ibid.
unfinished).
p. 47 should follow p. 34, and continues without a break
on hydropsy and its cure, as in H35- P- 49 a 2 4 = en d °f
1435, 156, after which there is a gap in that MS. On p. 52a
begins a new topic : ' Uarioile sunt parva apostemata '

The first leaf was a cover ; the reverse has on the right-
hand half an impression of the letters on the next leaf
but one (f. za), and on the left hand is jotted the descent of
Oliverus a Bourk. At foot is a prayer (inverted). The next
leaf is numbered 1.

Begins: tDuchaig mic uilUam bupc ann po. At the top

written in English : " Olyverus Bourke mac Sheamus died

f. 6b. An account of the high connexions of the Burkes
in England, France, and Ireland. After five lines there is
an erasure of two lines, and lower down an erasure of five
lines has been written over. This second writing contains
the date 1578, and claims Queen Elizabeth as of the blood
of the Burkes [as, indeed, she was, Lionel, third son of
Edward III, having married Elizabeth de Burgh]. The next
paragraph begins : Cuilleao eile bo rhacgniomapcoib ]
bo rhoppgelaib bupcac annpo, and claims Baldwin of
Jerusalem as a Burke. It seems that while he chose the
east as the scene of his exploits, William Burke chose the
west, Scotland, Germany, France, England, and Ireland.

After six blank leaves come fourteen illuminated pictures.
The first four are of sacred subjects, viz. Christ before
Pilate; the scourging; the crowning with thorns; Christ
bearing the cross. Nine of the pictures are full-length
portraits of Burkes in complete armour, the first being
Richard Mor, who is here stated to be the son of a
daughter of the English king. Then follow (2) Richard's
son William I ; (3) William II, by whom was slain Felim
O'Conor and other chieftains ; (4) Edmond Albanach ;
(s)Tomas; (6) Edmond the Bearded; (7) Richard his son;
(8) Richard's son Shean. The last portrait is that of
(9) Sheaan son of Oliverus, son of Sheaan son of Richard.

A blank page is left for that of Oliverus, and has at the top
the words : aic oliuepup abupk. In addition there is a
picture of the arms of these Burkes. The shield corresponds
to that of the Earls of Mayo. Some of these illustrations
are reproduced by Mr. M. J. Blake in the Galway Archaeo-
logical Journal, vols, vi and vii.
f. 26. After one_ blank leaf comes a poem of 78 quatrains,

After forty-two blank leaves, we have a memorandum in
English, headed: " Ansate of y e rising out of Connaght.
Mayo — xl ho. & cc foote," and so forth. On the following
two pages is a formal document in Latin, beginning :
"Universis et singulis pateat per praesentes quod manerium
De bel lecce pervenit ad Iohannem Oliveri de Burgo
eiusque filium Vaterum De Burgo, sed veri heredes ipsius
manerii seu castri, viz. Thomas cathenar«#z Bared et eius

cession. The document is signed by sixteen persons, five of
whom have the name Baired [Barrett]. The names of several
witnesses are recited. Another similar document follows
on the next page, bearing date 1584, and signed by four
persons, the names of the witnesses being recited. This
embodies a contract between Walter Burke and the sons
of Richard Bared. On the next two pp. the former docu-
ment is given in Irish in a different hand, with the
signatures. Below is written " per me Risterdum Merak

ments. They are printed in O'Donovan's Hy Fiachrach,

There is a short table of contents written (says O'Donovan)
by Maurice Gorman. The first part of the volume ( 1-238) is
all in one hand, probably of about the same period as pp. 457-
460, which are dated 14.79. The scribe of the first part was
apparently Lucas O'Dallain (196 /re. sup. and 222).
p. 1. Hibernia insola in occidenti posita est. This is a
version of the genealogical tract printed by Meyer in ZCP viii
291 seq. from Laud 610. Meyer does not seem to have known
this recension. It agrees in part with the tracts in LL 319-
341 and BB 67 seq., as also with some of the material scattered
■ throughout the Book of Lecan.

this manuscript.

189 was left blank by the first scribe, and then filled with
pedigrees by a later hand : at the end, in another late hand,
a prayer for Tomas mac Conchobair buide . . . O Ceallaig.
190 to 238 are occupied mainly with the poems in praise
of O'Kellys and O'Maddens, enumerated in this catalogue.
But no part of the MS. can ever have belonged to the codex
in R.I. A. known as the Book of Ui Maine.
195 was left blank at first, and then filled in by a late hand.
206. Alliterative prose eulogy of Eogan mac Murchaid m.
Cathail m. Madudan and his ancestors (see O'Donovan's
"Hy Many," 133).

of Philip mac Muiris at Almain, 1553." See Onom. s.v. Cell

written on 345 m. sup. (copied on 346 m. sup.) some verses
beginning Gon bo laoib bo lobamap.
391 left margin, and 408 right margin, notes (in a later
hand than text) written by one Moris mac Gerailt, who has also
made an attempt to write his name in English capitals at 375.

The first series of aphorisms is numbered by the scribe
1-74; it is interrupted by a gap after f. 2. On f. 3 we begin
with No. 7 of a new series, which is carried to No. 90 ; here
the numbering ceases, though there are 28 more aphorisms,
ending with f. 5. The Hippocratic sections are also
numbered .

(No. 16). This is in the same hand as No. 1306.
(No. 17). Not (as Dr. Abbott states) in the same hand as

The initial letters are given at the end (on the verso) as
c. c. c. 5. (perhaps tuairgnid croda, or the like). The
surname of the dead chieftain is unfortunately illegible, but
he is referred to in line 7 as "the ConallCernach of Clann

In line 16 he is called " son of Joan (Siban)."

Ibid. The note about Donnchad O'Kennedy was written
"in the house of Cian mac an Gabann in Ormond." This
family (says O'Donovan) were hereditary shanachies to the
O' Kennedys of Ormond. O'Kennedy was bishop of Killaloe,
and was postulated by the chapter of Cashel for the arch-
bishopric, but the king refused his consent (a.d. 1237), and
David McKelly was consecrated. (Ware's Bishops, 228 ; id.
Archiep. Cassel., p. 9 ; Cal. Papal Letters i. 166 ; Thei'ner,
Vet. Mon. Hib. et Scot, xciv ; Br. Mus. 4793 f. 5 z°). This
note seems therefore to have been written before the kino-'s
refusal.

This volume contains in all seventeen separate sections of
various length, viz. : (1) pp. 1, 2 and col. 125-128 (2 ff.) ;
(2) col. 3-122 (20 ff.) ; (3) pp. 123-4 (1 f.) ; (4) col. 129-216
(23 ff.); (5) col. 2 1 7-280 '(16 ff); (6) col. 281-344 (16 ff.) ;
(7) col. 345-364 (6 ff); (8) col. 36S-368 (1 f-); (9) 369
(Roddy's letter) ; (10) col. 370-400 (8 ff.) ; (11)001.401-436
(gff.); (12) col. 437-476 (10 ff); (13) col. 477-486 (3 ff);
(14) col. 487-499 (4 ff.) ; (15) col. 500-572 (i8i ff.) ;
(16) col. 573-958 (99 ff-) 5 (17) at end > 4 ff- paper.
Each section is written by one separate hand, except in
the cases noted below.
Throughout sections 11 and 16 the text has undergone
frequent corrections and erasures by a late hand, perhaps
Charles O'Conor's.
pp. 1-2 contain two columns each : the numbering by
columns begins with 3.
col. 3-87 are, according to O'Curry, the work of Iolland
and Tornae O'Mulconry, with perhaps a third scribe, un-
named : see Stokes' Three Glossaries, p. vii. The etymo-
logical tract in col. 88-122 was also written by the same
hands. It is known as " O'Mulconry's Glossary," but
Stokes in giving it that name forgot that O'Curry regarded
O'Mulconry, or rather the O'Mulconrys, as scribes, not as
compilers: see Archiv, i. 232. They copied it in the year
1572, as appears from a note written at the foot of col. 98,
Of this note the first four lines have been deliberately
erased, except the initial IS : then we have . . . [Eoghan]

carefully erased. These three men were hanged in the year
1572 by the Earl of Thomond : see F.M.v, p. 1657.
col. 129-210 seem to be all written by one scribe, but if so
it is doubtful whether he is the Seanchan O Mulconry who
signs on col. 210, or another man. For on p. 143 at the
head of the poem G5 po bpaigi there is written in the
same hand as the text mipi coipbm ocnaill(«V) pcpibpic.
Perhaps this is a note by the scribe of the archetype, a sup-
position which helps to explain the miswriting of O Conaill.
Several blanks occur throughout this section, as if the original
had been illegible.
132: for " 3 " read " 30."
149. The poem is headed Cat>5 cc. Read '' Gcu," and in
line 22 " cechcaipe " (26 stanzas).
150 : for " 17" read " 35 '' ; 152: read " oecmmaibeap" ;

174 : read " beag aicnim bom aep cumca," 28 St., a blank

185: /or "23" read "28."
188. There are 27 stanzas of the poem pacup a ndrhait)
down to the end of col. 189. The end of it on p. 190 seems
to have been deliberately obliterated, and another poem,
Qnbam pf ac poinn cigepnaip (7 st.), written over the
erasure.
The Duanaire of Tadg og O Higgin ends here.
191 : for " 36 " read " 37." The heading is very faint, but
I think should be read t)ucmaipe Guacail [uf] uisin. I can
see no trace of mac an 6aipb. At col. 212 the name of
Tuathal O Higgin is written in full.
194. This poem is incomplete: there is a blank space on
col. 195.
201 : for "27" read " 28."
204 : for " Roe " read " buide."
207 : read " Cormac ruadh O Higgin " (distinct from
Cormac mac Gilla-Coluim O'Higgin, as to whom see
O'Grady, B.M. Cat. 447).
212. Margaret (Mairgreg) is the name of Brian O'Conor s
mother, not his wife, who is called in the last stanza mgen

read " ceine."

217-248, and also 263-280, are written by one hand ; 249-

On 248 there is a note in faded red ink which gives us the
name of the first scribe and his date. I give this in full, en-
closing in brackets such words as I cannot read with certainty.
Atkinson, Contents of Facs., p. zb, gives the name as
O Duirnin, but I have no doubt that O Duinnin is the
true reading. I think Atkinson has read the date correctly,
but it is almost indecipherable. t)onncab mc 5'Mananaeni

281-344. This section was written byMurchadh O Cuindlis.
He names himself in a note in the lower margin of col. 332 ;
and at col. 320 in a long colophon appended to the Aided.
Muirchertaig he again gives his name with the date 1401, and
goes on to recount the portents of the times, as, the dethrone-
ment of Richard II, an inundation in Flanders, the drowning

of the Earl of Desmond in the Suir (cf. FM iv. 761), the
sack of Galway by Ulick Burke, a shower of blood at Cnoc
Rafann (near Cahir, Co. Tipperary), and above all a ship
that was burned at sea and could not be saved either by
fresh or salt water. At col. 306, m. inf. he notes a TYIup-
cpaigi Gpecipne bopcpibup in mbec pa, and at col. 313,
m. inf. he writes : Gcamaib mbiu 05 cpiall bul cap Sliab
Cua 7 pop popaib ap peb cipe can cfap ann. Both these
places are in south-east Tipperary. If it were not for these
indications of place, the similarity of his penmanship to that
of Gilla-Isa M'Firbis, who wrote the last section of the MS.,
would lead one to believe that his work formed part of the
original Leabhar buidhe. He shows an interest in the, affairs
of Connaught, noting at col. 305, m. sup., the death of Walter
son of David aBurc, and referring to Ulick aBurc's sack of
Galway both in the colophon already quoted and in a note
at col. 316, m. inf. In several notes he mentions the plague
that was raging (col. 299, 308, 320).
289-290, m. inf. Three quatrains, written by scribe of

After col. 304 a leaf is wanting, = Cath Muighe R&tha, ed.
O'Donovan, pp. 254, 10, to 270, 11. (Note that pp.272, 1 to
292, 6 of O'D.'s text are wanting in the YBL copy, though
there is here no hiatus in the MS.)
305-6, m. inf. A poem in 9 st. : Sen bollocap Ulaib

tribe of Dan, and a pedigree of Mflid Espaine, and a note on
Clann Bresail and Colla Fochrith. In the lower margin a

name "Fen dar crinach " : cf. Br. Da Derga, § 41. The
entry about Silvius is on 344. The leaf between 344 and 345
formerly belonged to No. 1317, and is numbered 227, 228
(two pages).

Ibid., m. inf. Stanza: poglonnaio cac cm ollp.
Cirruaid's note at 380-1, m. inf., is written in faint ink,
and is much later than the text. Another note at foot of
384-5 in similar ink is perhaps also his ; it runs : a TTluipe
a Seamaip co bci cu plan map canac o baile an TTluca
anoip (Ballymote, about 25 miles from Lecan or Lackan).
It is worth noting that Cirruaid {rede Cithruadh) was a name
in use in the Mac Firbis family : see O'Donovan's Hy
Fiachrach, pref. vi. In the margin of col. 375 a hand other
than that of the text wrote bennaccum pop anci bopcpiul>

400. A poem in 3 st, Oilgim baipc, ascribed to Cairpri
mac Etaine, Eatan ban- file and Oi mac Olluman. Then
another poem, Cucc bam a X)6 moip, 5 st.
There is a slip (unnumbered) between 424 and 425,
containing the dindsenchas of Ceilbe : this is in a different
hand from the rest.
437~47 6 - Comparison with No. 1321, 49 seq. shows that
there is a considerable hiatus after col. 448. Col. 449, 23
= No. 1 32 1, 693 1.
Col. 477 contains the end of a treatise on urine. That
on the four elements begins with 478 and ends on 485. It
is followed by a separate treatise " de viribus animalium."
498. Gillapatrick's note gives the place of writing as Loch
Tethead, which, says O'Donovan, is now Lough O Gara, near
Boyle, Co. Roscommon.
499 is a page in two columns; on the verso, unnumbered
(facs. 463), is a Latin prayer : see Atkinson, Contents.
500-572 are apparently the work of two (or more) scribes
1318] OF IRISH MANUSCRIPTS. 347
whose work is not easy to distinguish. At 511, m. inf., there
is a note : Sin buic a pippepa o Ow'z'b 7 aca THagnup 05a
pao nac buic ace bo cecna leca TYloga cpe bigpaip bile
7 cpuipge buaib pem. 1408 : "This for you, Ferfesa, from
David, and Magnus says that it is not for you but for the
Raven of Leth Mogha, through ardent affection and omen
of success (?)." So O'Donovan, who is unable to explain
the cryptic reference to the Raven (or rather scnldcrow) of
Leth Mogha. On 524, m. sup., there is another note, which
escaped O'Donovan's notice: ISim cuippeac cap eip in
baill pin bo gpibpne buin a pippepa . mipi Goo o Ouib
Oabuipan. (The change of hands from David to Aedh
seems to occur at 516, 7 lines from foot ) At 534, m. inf.,
we have another note, apparently addressed to the same
Ferfesa: (not noticed by O'D.) [Sin] a pirfesa 5m gupub
lnmuice . mipi eplarii Cille TTIume . ailnn cpoccaine
buinn uile 7 511 gcoips ... bo TTlaolinuipe : "There,
Ferfesa! though it is nothing to boast of. I am the erlamh
of Cell Muine," etc. This is evidently a little jest of the
first scribe (David). Cell Muine = Menevia, of which St.
David was patron. At 542-3, m. inf., a long note ends with
the words 7 a bpappab Caipppi bam apm paipc. This
place, says O'Donovan (who translates the whole), was "a
castle belonging to MacEgan, in Corcamoe, Galway, about
eight miles from Tuam." Other mss. written by the
MacEgans' school have notes dated from this place :
cf. No. 1337, 443, 44s, 450, 452, 454. At 548-9, m. inf.,
at the beginning of the Auraicept there is a long note,
written at the same place, and ending with the words :
meipi ip pop«j mac pippapois.
The last section, 573-958, seems to be all by one hand,
though there are changes which suggest that different parts
were written at intervals of time. The-only exceptions are
a few passages from a second hand, which supplied part of
618 and part of 619 (the rest of this column and the next are
blank), the end of 714 and all 715, 739 and the unnumbered
slip that follows, also the note at foot of 953-4, and the end
of 958.

p. 90 : cf. O'Curry, MS. Mat. 244 sq., and Eriu, viii. 1.
1319] OF IRISH MANUSCRIPTS. 349
pp. 90-110 form a gathering of eleven leaves (originally
twelve, but the last is gone). It is not easy to say how many
hands have been employed on 90-99. O'Cuirnfn's note says
that he wrote for his comrade, Seaan O'Glaimin, at Magh
Eithne. O'D. says that this place is south of Ballyshannon,
and that the O'Cuirnins were ollamhs to the O'Donnells
before the fourteenth century, when they died out, and were
succeeded by the O'Clerys.
The story of the Passion (99-1 ic) is the work of another
scribe.
In the upper margin of 90 to no three quatrains and two
poems, partly legible, are written by another hand than that
of the text. The quatrain on p. 90 and most of that on
p. 91 are illegible. That on p. 92 begins Dd paigchi
abbap gdipe. The first poem is addressed by a pilgrim to
a crucifix which has shared his wanderings. The stanza at
top of p. 96 runs :
TTlori aoupc lorn aclocaiji
puapup asuc imocap
o Ceamrmis oa copcaip spicm
50 peanmuiri z,o\rthaig Torrian\.
(I owe the interpretation of this poem to Dr. Bergin.)
The second poem begins, apparently at top of 106, with
Rt oCinnpelaig na cpeac. It is on the rights of Leinster
kings, and the five stanzas which remain agree pretty closely
with Leabhar na g Ceart (ed. O'Donovan), p. 252.
pp. 1 19-122 contain the beginning of a copy of Togail
Troi, following the first version published by Stokes, from
LL 217. This is carried as far as the story of Hypsipyle
(not in LL), which is continued by the same hand on nSd.
(On the recto of this leaf, 118c, a recent hand has written two
stanzas, TTla piappaigceac buo peapac and poglaim na
eigpi uile.) Here it breaks off, leaving half the page blank.
On p. 123 a second fragment of the same version, written
by another hand, begins somewhat earlier than the point
where the first leaves off (123a 1 = 122, 12). It is carried on
to the foot of p. 126, and a continuation is found on one of
two pieces of vellum stitched upside down to \\%b, the
verso of the blank leaf which served once as a cover to the
gathering 119-171. This fragment ends at the killing of
Cacus, as in LL 222^. A third fragment of the same
version of Togail Troi is contained partly on the verso of a
piece of vellum which forms part of the cover at end of the
gathering (171c), partly on the second piece of vellum
350 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CATALOGUE [1319
stitched to n83. These correspond respectively to pp. 120,
26,-121, 15 ; and to 121, 16,-122, 1 1.
The second version of Togail Trot, edited by Stokes in
Ir. Text. 11. i, runs from p. 127 to 171. At foot of 127,
col. 1, the scribe signs his name, Maelsechlainn.
p. 148 was left blank by the original scribe, who noted at
foot of 147 that there was a defect in his archetype (of. Ir.
Text. 11. i, line 921). Later hands have scribbled two poems
on the blank page, one a satire on the Franciscans : Cap
leth cupa an ecio conpiap ? the other in praise of tobacco :
Nf boile (?) blaip a cobac, 10 st.
After 171c are now placed the two folios numbered
188-191. These are followed by the nine leaves from the
Book of Lecan, in this order: 192-3, 172-187; but 192
ought to follow 187. Dr. Abbott ignores the leaf numbered
194. It contains part of a physical treatise on the composi-
tion of bodies, homogeneous and heterogeneous. Recto is
discoloured, and the verso quite illegible.
pp. 195-278. Not Uraicept na n-Eigeas, but five middle-
Irish grammatical treatises : (1) on the verb ; (2) p. 23 lb, on

of the verb; (5) p. 252, on the noun. The last has been
edited by Bergin. Eriu, vol. viii, Supplement. The first,
fourth, and fifth are mainly written by one scribe, helped
here and there by a second. The other two treatises seem
to show two or three different hands.
On p. 199, in a blank space, the name "Domhnall" is

by an elaborate initial, down to p. 44, where there is a
change to an inferior hand. The last two items, Sinctber

Comparison of the chapters common to both copies shows
that they derive from the same original.
p. 76 is illegible, and the numbering passes on to 79.
p. 79. This treatise begins with a Latin heading (now
illegible except for the last word, temore). It is the same
that we have in No. 1436, 256-292 (acephalous ?). The
leaves are here in wrong order : after p. 80 should come
93-96; here a folio or more is lost: then 97-100 (= No. 1436,
272-278), followed without a break by 81-88 (= No. 1436,
279-292).
pp. 89-92 are in another hand and belong to a different
tract, on the treatment of various febrile symptoms,
' disma ' (92 a), deafness (92 b), frenesis {ibid). Then after a

The general size averages 9" x 6", except 681-710, which
are 9^" x 7". The numbers usually mean columns, but
occasionally pages. The total number of folios is 242^,
besides the smaller slips mentioned by Dr. Abbott. The
penultimate page is numbered 874.
Scribes and Marginalia. — Probably no part of this MS. was
written earlier than the sixteenth century. Notes by different
scribes abound, except towards the end of the volume, and
are often difficult to read or interpret. Col. 1-350 seem
to be the work of two scribes : one is Sean mac Aedagain,
who calls himself Sean ruad (161, m. inf.), or Sean mac
Domnaill (120, m. inf.): the other, also no doubt a Mac
Aedagain, signs as "an Cosnamach" at foot of col. 9 and
277, at top of 285, etc. : at 325, m. inf., he calls himself " an
Consantinus." Dr. Abbott {ad col. 311) identifies the two
men ; but cf. 2722 in Copnamac qui scribsit bo Sean, and
312, m. inf., Sin buicaSeaain puaib. Several other persons
are mentioned, no doubt fellow-scribes. Two notes are
addressed to a Sean dond(\<&z, 161, m. sup.), others refer to
Cairpre (49s), Eochaid (174, m. inf.), Connla (300, m. inf.),
Saerbrethach (305-6, m. sup.). The note at 224, m. sup.,
quoted by Dr. Abbott (Marginalia) should read Oeapap
emamn f Deopdin, etc. It is in a different hand from the
text.
There are several notes of place in this part, besides those
given by Dr. Abbott.

Between 428 and 429 there is a slip dated 1663 acknow-
ledging receipt of 6 shillings by John Crawford, esq., of the
mill of Garvaughy, from Donell o Dawly. The Ms. was at
this date probably in the possession of D. MacFirbis : see
Dr. Abbott's Marginalia.
The note at col. 430 " Constat fol. 108 " is in Lhwyd's
hand, and does not imply that this particular tract ever con-
tained 108 leaves.
The second slip between 436 and 437 is signed mipe
decagon. This Aedagan (no doubt another MacEgan)
signs again at foot of 439, giving his location as " Caillin (?)
fada ruad," and adding a note about Donnchad MacEgan,
and a prayer for the soul of Fergus MacEgan of Dun
D(aighre), with the date 1577. This scribe wrote 431 to
468 (except 465-6) : cp. Dr. Abbott's Marginalia. (The note
there quoted from col. 448 ends popmac in peipm, " issue of
the same," i.e. "son of Aodhagan.") The slip between
454 and 455 ends with a note by him, dated 1577 ( not '57^),
deploring the death of William, son of Donnchadh riabach
O'Kelly.
It is, perhaps, the same Aedagan, using a differently
sloped hand, who wrote most of 469-633, two or three
years earlier. His note at 511-512, m. inf., is dated from
the house of Domnall g\as in Clann macne Eoo-ain,
i.e. Clonmacnoone on the river Suck. This may explain
the words mipi apa cochp - in an obscure gloss at foot
of 537" 8 - Ara Cothraige may be a place-name of the
Cathraige, or Catraige, whose territory included Clonmac-
noone : see Onom. s. v. Catraige. For other notes of
place, see Marginalia.
1336] OF IRISH MANUSCRIPTS. 357
A scribe who calls himself Gabrial, and who wrote an
unmistakable script, assisted the Aedagan of 43 1 seq. :
see the notes cited by Dr. Abbott at 449 and 465. His
hand is easily recognizable here and there in the part of the
second Aedagan, e.g. at 562 : here, however (last line), he
signs as Muircertach, so Gabrial must be a nom de plume.
A third scribe, Eogan mac Domnaill glais, contributes a
few columns, and signs at foot of 573 and 576.
col. 641s. A note, Sin a Concabaip on Co^namaigk, etc.
p. 644.*, a later note by Gillananaomh, at Baile mic

The part numbered 7io*-83i seems to have belonged
originally to one and the same volume. It has coloured
initials throughout. Six hands have been at work : A wrote
7io*-737, 780-801, 806-826; B wrote 740-77 q ; C (who is
perhaps A writing large) wrote part of 723 and 738-9*;
D wrote 827-831 (part); E wrote 801 (part), 802, 826c;
F wrote 803-5 ana part of 831; E and F are relatively
late.

There are 249 folios in pt. 1 (counting separately the ten
"half-leaves" under pp. 138-151), and 225 in pt. 11.
Probably most of the volume, as far as p. 668, was written
in the sixteenth century. I cannot agree with Dr. Abbott
in referring certain parts to the fourteenth century (pp. 214,
565). At p. 25a 9, at the end of a law tract, there is
this note : bui pomaeib dna na hCalga innf acbach

In the lower margin of p. 246 a note records an eclipse
of the moon and a destructive flood, a.d. 1540. The note
at p. 450, quoted by Dr. Abbott, ends a bpaipe Dam 1565,
" I am at Park" not " Pare Dam." Dr. A. reads 1460, but cf.

O'Curry in Laws i, p. xxxiii. The vision of Tnuthal was
copied in 1616 from an original written between 1510 and

Meyer, 89, note.
It may safely be assumed that the law tracts and
glossaries which form the staple of the vellum part proceed
from the school of the Mac Egans, though the only places
in which their surname occurs are in the note quoted above,
in the tracts attributed to Giollananaomh MacEgan, p. 157
seq., and in the poem at p. 355 by the same author. It
seems also that one of the scribes who wrote the two notes
quoted by Dr. Abbott at pp. 488, 489 was another Gillana-
naomh MacEgan ; he may be the same as the Gillananaem
who signs on p. 25 (see below.) As is usual in mss. coming
from the MacEgans' scrjool, there are abundant marginalia,
detached stanzas, and personal notes. From these may be
gleaned the Christian names of several scribes and the
places where they worked. Others will be found in
Dr. Abbott's description.

360 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CATALOGUE [1337
In the note on p. 443, m. inf., of which Dr. Abbott quotes
part, and again in another on p. 444, m. inf., the scribe
mentions his comrades, Magnus and Cosnamach. " Pare "
is again given as his locus at p. 445 m. sup. 450, 452, and
454.
p. 447, m. inf. : SHO buic a Dabii on Copnamac, etc.
The name "in Cosnamach" was common among the
MacEgans: cf. marginalia of Nos. 1336 and 1363. O'Grady,
however (Cat. 1 10), identifies this man, and his friends David
and Magnus, with Cosny O'Brien and two other scribes of
Eg. 88.
pp. 694-699 were written by Cathal mac Muireadhaigh,
author of the poem on p. 694. He signs (in Latin) on
p. 698, and gives the date March 15, 1636, on p. 699.
The latter note refers to .the death of Domnall gorm
mac Aenghusa and Eoin mac al . . mc Muideaphart. — There
is on p. 864, m. inf., a note : Sin buic o Ttldipe a t)omnaill
guipm, so this Domhnall was probably a scribe.

This volume is not, as Dr. Abbott asserts (ad p. 57), all
written by one hand. Most of it, I think, is the work of
an unnamed scribe of the sixteenth century, Fitzpatrick's
part being, perhaps, a little later. He dates his note on
p. 57 a ccoig na coille Clooa mete an Calbaigk : so the
entry on fol. 1 should be completed pgpioocap a ccoig na

There are eleven vellum leaves at the beginning, the first
being an independent fragment (8" x 5"). The outer
margin of almost all the vellum leaves, both at the beginning
and at the end, is more or less mutilated.
A hand other than that of the text has written the follow-
ing marginalia: —
p. 18. Stanza: [IS] cpua[g] an cep a m[b]iaam : cf.
No. 1363, 46. Below : [IS] mop an cpuai&e map boloipg

Bally Philip is between Clonmel and Cahir.
p. 20. Two stanzas, mainly illegible.
p. 21. Stanza: Mi paoaim bpucc (?) aip 5a bemmne.
The numbering of the paper begins with 23 (table -of
contents, imperfect) and runs to 295, but this covers many
unnumbered pages, which have been left blank without a
breach of continuity. Nine folios in this part are of whitish
vellum, matching the paper, pp. 138-9 are out of place,
and should precede p. 76. Another leaf is missing after
p. 75. On page 258, at end of bk. 4, there is the colophon :

p. 293. This marvel is borrowed from Liber Marbodi de
preciosis lapidibus, where " Euax, king of the Arabs," is cited
as authority.
pp. 296-311. These vellum leaves contain a fragmentary
translation or adaptation of a work by Johannes de Sancto
Paulo on the operation (laxative, astringent, etc.) of various
foods and medicines.
In Dr. Abbott's description, the sentence, "Of the vellum,
p. 3 begins imperfect," etc., is out of place, and should
follow the first paragraph.
364 SUPPLEMENT TO THE CATALOGUE [1343
1343 9" x 6i".
pp. 41-46 are occupied with a tract on anthrax {filuri)
written by the scribe of pp. 1 1 1-1 12 (O'Finngaine).
The " list of plants" begins on p. 47. It is a complete copy
of the Materia Medica of which we have fragments in Nos.
1323 and 1334 (not 1332). The last two articles, Sinciber
and Siucra, are added out of order, but by the same scribe as
the rest. (Cf. 1323.) The colophon states that the work
has been drawn a haincecaipib 7 a hepbulaipibh cacpach
palermeccme 7 bopeip pbuoeiji comaencaig/fo 6occuip7
pleibe pipalafn ; and further that "the book was finished by

the evangelist, and in the year of our Lord at that time
O OOOO

t>eich accuippe opum . . . the rest of this note has been
carefully scraped away. It seems then that O Cuinn com-
piled or translated the work from the antidotaries(P) and
herbals of the schools of Salerno and Montpellier in 1415 ;
the date of the present copy is undetermined.
p. 107. In the second line of this tract " Pilip Catelanus "
is quoted as an authority.
p. 113. After the tract on leprosy, in a different hand from
O Finngaine's, comes a page on the stercus of different
animals ; this ends middle of p. 114; the rest of this page
is blank ; the next folio (unnumbered) has only scribblings.
p. 115. This treatise is part of the same which is found
(again fragmentary) in No. 1435, 233-248 and 221-232, q.v.
P. 115, 32, of our MS. Nuncd'icamus de [e]vac[u]asione que

Ends on 143 b " Finit, amen " ; rest of column and next page
are blank except for scribbles.
The last treatise is also, I think, in O Finngaine's hand.
It seems to be founded on the Liliurn Medicinae. It deals
with (145) quinsy; (148) uvula ; (155) cough ; (163) phthisis;
(170) blood-spitting; (173) " empima " ; (177) pleurisy;
(186) " perphmonia " ; (187) tremor cordis. Ends incom-
plete on p. 188.
